| Light breaks on the horizon | |
| The ebbing on the flood | |
| Finally out of the clutches | |
| Pick myself up from mud. | |
| The scales fallen from my eyes now | |
| Dark clouds pass away | |
| No bitter taste left in my mouth | |
| And I can breathe again. | |
| Can look myself in the mirror | |
| While shaving you from my face | |
| And I'll not be your victim | |
| I've escaped. | |
| All of my senses gave me good warning | |
| Every signal flashed alarm – | |
| My mind slept under narcosis | |
| For you seemed so soft and warm. | |
| Well-schooled to be irresistible | |
| Your world's one of constant schemes | |
| The mistress of deft seduction | |
| Too devious for me. | |
| You tempted me beyond reason | |
| As with relish you played your game | |
| To your rules – double cross, deceit and shame | |
| You toyed with me in many ways. | |
| So close to falling | |
| But by the skin of my teeth | |
| At the very last moment | |
| I've escaped you | |
| From your spider's web I'm free. | |
| You sucked the air out slowly from my lungs | |
| With each new set of your desperate lies | |
| With kisses you wove your sorcery... | |
| I believed you time after time. | |
| Filled my vains with a tempestuous madness | |
| Loved me till I was dizzy and blind | |
| Then froze me out with dispassion | |
| You're poison of a deadly kind – | |
| Deliberately you manoeuvred me | |
| As your prey, the net was cast | |
| And for your killer instinct the coup de grace | |
| But that will never come... | |
| So close to... | |
| All your tricks just don't work now | |
| I've learned to stand up straight | |
| I've seen right through your cover just in time – | |
| I won't see you again. |
| Light breaks on the horizon | |
| The ebbing on the flood | |
| Finally out of the clutches | |
| Pick myself up from mud. | |
| The scales fallen from my eyes now | |
| Dark clouds pass away | |
| No bitter taste left in my mouth | |
| And I can breathe again. | |
| Can look myself in the mirror | |

| And I' ll not be your victim | |
| I' ve escaped. | |
