I am the voice inside your head and I control you
I am the lover in your bed and I control you
I am the sex that you provide and I control you
I am the hate you try to hide and I control you
Gods damn his hide! Sitting there, looking so smug. I feel the
familiar urge to bash his face in. Why this compulsion to hurt you so, Trickster? You twisted
bastard, smiling at a joke only you understand. One of these days I'll beat it out of you, I
swear. What are you looking at, anyway? We can never tell, since you so rarely open your eyes.
Your eyes....
So beautiful they are, even if they are unnatural. Perhaps I recognize their
unnaturalness as something that is within my own self. Like gems, gleaming with hidden
treasures. Would you relinquish those sweet treasures to me, I wonder?
No! I am not having these thoughts! You are an annoyance, nothing more. But then why do I
have these thoughts at all; why do I find myself nursing sweet, forbidden fantasies about you?
What is it that attracts me to you? Is it the cursed demon in my own soul, recognizing kin?
Gods damn it, I don't know. Perhaps you could tell me...
I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self Destruct
Are you looking at me, Zelgadis? Yare yare... is that a phantom gleam of desire I see in those azure eyes of yours? So like ice you are.... I bet I could melt you. You don't know what to make of me, do you? The human in you recoils from my essential evil, but the demon in you is attracted to it. You would love to see me bleeding and dead, yet you need me, whether you like it or not. I can lead you places, tell you things. I can teach you...
I speak religion's message clear and I control you
I am denial, guilt and fear and I control you
I am the prayers of the naïve and I control you
I am the lie that you believe and I control you
A priest. Feh. Some priest. Although I suppose technically it is true. To think that we believed you at first...! It makes me sick, this talent for acting that you possess. You could get practically anybody to buy into your charade. A small child runs up to you, tugging on your robes. You lean down and scoop her up, tickling her under the chin and making her laugh with you. I see the barely perceptible tightening of Gourry's jaw and I understand that even he does not trust you with this innocent. You are not what you appear. You are evil, feeding off our most negative feelings. Pain to you is exquisite.
I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self Destruct
Isn't she a cutie!! I tickle the girl, relishing the fear of the mother as she sees a stranger holds her child. Then she relaxes when she recognises my garb as that of a priest. I have to smile at this. Humans are so gullible! Oh Zelgadis, what is that look for? You don't trust me with the girl? After all we've been through together! I give the girl back to her mother with a charming smile, and they both return it. The girl waves gaily as she is carried off. I have a way with children. I turn to face you, Zelgadis, still smiling. You snort and look away. Why don't you come a little closer to me, let me feel the faint heat that emanates through that stone skin of yours? I could show you the affection you yearn for, you know...
I am the needle in your vein and I control you
I am the high you can't sustain and I control you
I am the pusher I'm a whore and I control you
I am the need you have for more and I control you
Damn him! In the flickering light of the fire I swear he looked at me, his eyes glowing with some erotic suggestion. Damn him! That look is caught in my mind like a fishhook, tugging me in direction I don't want to explore... Liar. I do want to explore these dark avenues of pleasure, I want to explore you. Bastard. Stop taunting me, because I know you are! Give me what I want...
I am the bullet in the gun and I control you
I am the truth from which you run and I control you
I am the silencing machine and I control you
I am the end of all your dreams and I control you
But to be with you is death. You can only bring death, it's in your nature. Dark, cavorting evil. That grin of yours just hides horrible secret deeds done in the dead of night. And part of me is just like you. Bastard! The temptation is great... but what would become of me if I gave in?
I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self Destruct
There. You've left the fire, Zelgadis, coming my way. Here, into my
arms. Yes....
Now you belong to me.
