Wrapped Around Your Finger
Enchanted Dance of Knowledge and Destiny
Lyrics
You consider me the young apprentice
You see me as someone learning from you
Caught between the Scylla and Charibdes
Feeling caught between two difficult situations or choices
Hypnotized by you if I should linger
Feeling captivated or spellbound by your presence
Staring at the ring around your finger
Observing the commitment or relationship you're in
I have only come here seeking knowledge
I've come here to gain knowledge
Things they would not teach me of in college
Learning things not taught in traditional education
I can see the destiny you sold turned into a shining band of gold
I can see the future or destiny you promised, now represented as a wedding ring
I'll be wrapped around your finger
I will be completely under your control or influence
I'll be wrapped around your finger
Reiterating complete submission or surrender to your influence
Mephistopheles is not your name
Clarifying that the person is not the devil (Mephistopheles), but aware of their intentions
I know what you're up to just the same
Aware of the person's motives or plans
I will listen hard to your tuition
Willing to pay close attention to your teachings or guidance
You will see it come to its fruition
Believing that what's being taught will eventually come to fruition or realization
I'll be wrapped around your finger
Reiterating being under your control or influence
I'll be wrapped around your finger
Restating complete submission or surrender to your influence
Devil and the deep blue sea behind me
Feeling caught between a difficult situation and an uncertain outcome
Vanish in the air you'll never find me
Expecting to disappear or escape unnoticed
I will turn your face to alabaster
Intending to change your appearance to appear innocent or pure
When you'll find your servant is your master
When you realize that someone you think you control is actually controlling you
You'll be wrapped around my finger
Asserting control over someone else
You'll be wrapped around my finger
Repeating the assertion of control over someone else
You'll be wrapped around my finger
Reiterating the assertion of control over someone else
