It's time
Want to take you as you are
Just purse your lips and close your eyes
So sweet
The nectar of your heart
Take me in, I'll make you mine
I'm in your head, you can't deny it
You're hanging on my every word
Now I've got you under my spell
Indoctrinated in the fire
And though I've seen you at your worst
Surrender I will never tell on you
You're seduced
You're right where you belong
You're so confused
Watch my colors turn tonight
I'm in your head, you can't deny it
You're hanging on my every word
Now I've got you under my spell
Indoctrinated in the fire
And though I've seen you at your worst
Surrender I will never tell on you
I'm the fools' messiah
I turn you on with fire
I'm the fools' messiah
Take me in tonight
Like a moth to a flame
You will give as I take your mind, mind
So don't be afraid
I will leave you satisfied
I'm in your head, you can't deny it
You're hanging on my every word
But now I've got you under my spell
Indoctrinated in the fire
You know this doesn't have to hurt
Surrender I will never tell on you
I'm the fools' messiah
I turn you on with fire
I'm the fools' messiah
Take me in tonight
