Verse 1
Look at you hanging on every single word I speak Tracing the shadow I leave across your street You traded your will for a glance from my eye And called it a blessing to watch me pass by You think this is romance, you think this is fate I think it’s hilarious how fast you broke down the gate
Pre-Chorus
You’re helpless, defenseless, wrapped round my thumb Surrendering everything before the battle’s begun
Chorus
Smitten! Look at the fool on his knees! Smitten! Begging for horror to please! You love the decay, you love the dark shine Smitten by the woman who’s erasing your mind Smitten… and hopeless.
Verse 2
I give you a drop and you ask for a flood I show you the poison, you call it sweet blood You write down my name like a holy decree While I use your devotion to set myself free You’re not a lover, you’re just inventory Another small chapter in Pandora’s story
Chorus
Smitten! Look at the fool on his knees! Smitten! Begging for horror to please! You love the decay, you love the dark shine Smitten by the woman who’s erasing your mind Smitten… and hopeless.
Bridge
[Dramatic synth solo] Does it hurt? Or does the pain feel like affection now? You’ve forgotten the difference… haven’t you?
Final Chorus
Smitten! Drowning inside of my glow! Smitten! Nowhere else left you can go! You chose the dark queen and she accepts the command To crush your sweet heart in the palm of her hand! Smitten… Forever.
