[Intro]

Alchemy, alchemy

Tell me what you’ve done to me


[Verse 1]

I waited 'till the Moon had risen high

Escaped your tide and pull on me

I piloted the labyrinths of lies

Haunted by the hooks in me


[Pre-Chorus]

And now I’m falling right back

Into the trap that you set for me

Back inside your spell

I'm back in your sorcery


[Chorus]

Alchemy, alchemy

Tell me what you’ve done to me

Synthesized and transformed

Pathetic lifeform

Alchemy, alchemy

I don't want your drug in me

You get me high 'til I want more

But you hit like chloroform

You hit like chloroform


[Verse 2]

I fell in right for the fantasy

Enchanted by the chemistry

The more that you took, the more I see

I’m locked inside a conjuring

I’m just a mannequin, stuck

In your plans to get struck

By the trance you put me in

Plant your curse under my skin


[Chorus]

It's alchemy, alchemy

Tell me what you’ve done to me

Synthesized and transformed

Pathetic lifeform

Alchemy, alchemy

I don't want your drug in me

You get me high 'til I want more

But you hit like chloroform (But you hit like chloroform)


[Bridge]

I let the beast in you get the best of me

Tossed aside like old debris you don't need

I finally removed the mask you made

So you can't hide the masquerade underneath

(Underneath, underneath)

(Underneath)


[Pre-Chorus]

(Underneath) And now I’m falling right back

(Underneath) Into the trap that you set for me

(Underneath) Back inside your spell

(Underneath) I'm back in your sorcery


[Chorus]

Alchemy, alchemy

Tell me what you’ve done to me

Synthesized and transformed

Pathetic lifeform

Alchemy, alchemy

I don't want your drug in me

You get me high 'til I want more

But you hit like chloroform

You hit like chloroform


[Instrumental Outro]

[Spoken words]

Ladies and Gentlemen!

You are about to be astounded!

You are about to be amazed!

What I am about to show you is not an illusion!

This is a skill I've learned from the ancient masters of the Far East!

Before your eyes, I will make a person disappear!
