Lyrics
Like a kiss of evil it took hold on me.
Feeling a malevolent influence that has taken a strong hold on the speaker.
Creeping paranoia, it will get me day by day.
Experiencing a gradual increase in irrational fears and suspicions, affecting the speaker daily.
Like the deadly viper with it's poisoned teeth
Comparing the negative impact to that of a deadly snake with venomous fangs.
It is getting in my blood, a killing brain disease.
Expressing the invasive nature of the influence, likening it to a lethal brain disease spreading through the speaker's bloodstream.
Oh, no, the thrill became a curse,
Realizing that what once brought excitement has now become a burden or source of suffering.
Oh, the right has turned to wrong.
Acknowledging a shift from what was morally right to wrong.
It's just me, myself to blame,
Taking personal responsibility for the situation, admitting fault.
Yes I could have seen it coming.
Regretting not foreseeing the negative consequences in advance.
Now I'm a wasted man
Describing the speaker as a person whose potential and well-being have been wasted.
This is 'cause I am under control.
Attributing the wasted state to being under control of a harmful influence.
Inside a self built cage,
Depicting confinement within a self-imposed psychological or emotional cage.
Screaming out the rage, under control.
Expressing intense anger and frustration, restrained but seeping out from being under control.
Enslave my soul, I'm under control.
Stating that the speaker's soul is enslaved or dominated by external forces.
I can't live without it and I need it now,
Conveying a dependency on something, despite knowing it could be destructive.
What is I know about it will destroy me anyhow.
Understanding that knowledge of the harmful influence may lead to personal destruction.
I have lost my free will, it's enslaving me.
Expressing a loss of free will, feeling controlled or manipulated.
Face inside me mirror let me out and set me free.
Pleading to break free from the confinement, symbolized by a mirror reflecting the speaker's inner self.
Oh, no, the thrill became a curse,
Reiterating the transformation of a once exciting experience into a curse.
Oh, the right has turned to wrong.
Highlighting a moral shift from right to wrong.
It's just me, myself to blame,
Taking personal responsibility for the negative consequences, acknowledging fault.
Yes I could have seen it coming.
Expressing regret for not anticipating the negative outcome in advance.
Now I'm a wasted man
Reiterating the speaker's state of being wasted due to being under control.
This is 'cause I am under control.

Inside a self built cage,
Describing the confinement within a self-built cage, echoing earlier sentiments.
Screaming out the rage, under control.

Enslave my soul, I'm under control.
