Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
She says he rules her positively.
He owns her so she has no choice.
One word from him can stop her voice.
To get ahead, she'll stay on her knees.
He's the boss and she aims to please.
She does just what she's told he knows,
And when he tells her to leave, then she goes
because…
*refrain*
Absolute Power can corrupt a man.
And when it does he takes all he can.
To him, she means nothing. He'll take her soul.
His blood is red hot, but his heart is stone cold.
He can give it all to her or take it away.
There's power to be had and hell to pay.
A promise is to break and a grudge is to keep.
His lies dig a hole, and she's in deep.
He promised her power if she does what she's told.
Every single trick just tightens his hold.
When it comes to the truth she's so blind.
Reality has left her so far behind.
Everything he's offered her doesn't exist
Unholy deals sealed with an empty kiss.
*refrain*
Blind following turns to blind hate.
She wants to stop is now, but it's too late.
He won the whole game, there's nothing she can do.
She sold her soul and it's time to follow through.
Stop pleading baby, cause he can't hear.
What you wanted is what you fear.
He'll own you now till the day you die.
He'll only laugh at the tears you cry.
because…
*refrain*
To a select few I have known:
I'd lie awake at night, wondering if it was all a big mistake.
How, why?
What did I do wrong?
But I know now that it wasn't me.
There was no more I could have done.
But really, although I was broken for a long time, I thank you for twisting the knife.
I thank you for that, because now I know that I am stronger by myself.
I don't need a life line or any support besides myself.
And above all else, I forgive you.
Whatever, or whoever you are now, you were once the broken glass I walked on.
I learned how to do it right, and now I don't bleed anymore.
"Buzzing"
Power up, all systems are go.
Fuses burning, but your lights still glow.
Electrocution, causing a fire.
Pulses racing and slitting the wire.
Love like hot metal sending me sparks.
Flat lining with the broken hearts.
In my ears there's a buzzing sound.
I see the lightning kiss the ground.
*Chorus*
You shock me and electrify.
When you rock me and you mystify.
Electric lover flashing through my sky.
You shock me, rock me, I'm electrified.
Power surge and the blinding gleam.
Short circuited and releasing steam.
Live wire, raining down.
Bulb bursting with light profound.
Electric passion that powers my day.
Light up my world with your wild way.
In my eyes there's a flash of light.
I hear the thunder crack the night.
*Chorus*
You shock me and electrify.
When you rock me and you mystify.
Electric lover flashing through my sky.
You shock me, rock me, I'm mystified.
*Chorus*
She's the echo bouncing off the walls of your mind.
The light reflected that's making you blind.
She's the sonic wave that leaves you behind.
She's the echo, echo, echo, echo bouncing off the walls of your mind.
Here the voice, the siren song.
Answer back, don't take to long.
She's sunset singing while you're dancing in the west.
She's moonbeam laughing on the kissing crest.
She's heart break aching for you in paradise.
Call back now cause she doesn't ask twice, doesn't ask twice.
*Chorus*
She's the echo bouncing off the walls of your mind.
The light reflected that's making you blind.
She's the sonic wave that leaves you behind.
She's the echo, echo, echo, echo bouncing off the walls of your mind.
Hear the call, her crystal voice.
Answer back, you have no choice.
She's star shine speaking to you in the velvet night.
She glimmers in the darkness to create the light.
Her question bounces to your ears and sounds so sweet.
Call back now cause she doesn't repeat, doesn't repeat.
*Chorus*
She's the echo bouncing off the walls of your mind.
The light reflected that's making you blind.
She's the sonic wave that leaves you behind.
She's the echo, echo, echo, echo bouncing off the walls of your mind.
Screaming sound, dazzle, out of the blue.
It's just her voice bouncing back to you.
*Chorus*
She's the echo bouncing off the walls of your mind.
The light reflected that's making you blind.
She's the sonic wave that leaves you behind.
She's the echo, echo, echo, echo bouncing off the walls of your mind
Do you want the gift of life unending?
I watch the time - days and years transcending.
The colors, black and white with red are blending.
I lost the light of day.
My body lives untouched by age.
And deep with in I fight back the rage.
I have immortal freedom so now I live in a cage,
To live, death is my way.
*Chorus*
Oh come and walk with me.
Walk across the velvet sky with me,
Sometimes you have to hide the light to see
That night's no enemy.
Oh come and talk to me.
I'll tell you just how I used to be
Until I found the black ecstasy, my nocturne fantasy.
Dance the dark tango with me.
Can you forsake the sun to live in the moonlight?
Can I close your eyes to give you the dark sight?
Will you fall from grace just to take flight?
The choice is yours to make.
I'll drain you of the crimson fire.
And fill you up with bloody desire.
Passion makes the perfect sire.
Watch life fade away.
*Chorus*
Oh come and walk with me.
Walk across the velvet sky with me,
Sometimes you have to hide the light to see
That night's no enemy.
Oh come and talk to me.
I'll tell you just how it has to be
When we find the black ecstasy, our nocturne fantasy.
Dance the dark tango with me.
Now we're kindred spirits linked by blood.
We're raising Caine as we drink from the flood.
Now we're kindred spirits linked by blood.
We're raising Caine as we drink from the flood.
*Chorus*
Oh come and walk with me.
Walk across the velvet sky with me,
Sometimes you have to hide the light to see
That night's no enemy.
Oh come and talk to me.
I'll tell you just how you're going to be
When you find the black ecstasy, your nocturne fantasy.
Dance the dark tango with me.
