[Intro]
As I look into the eyes of Victoria
Enter the Puppet Master and his wife
I can't speak, I'm in shock
[Verse 1]
Human skulls, ancient books
A strange symbol on the wall, black candles burning low
In the gloomy light, I see an altar in white
Oh, what is it for? It must be a ritual
In glass jars up on shelves
I see liquid dark as Hell, there's one for every puppet
[Chorus]
I hear the master's voice, magic words from ancient times
I'm feeling strange inside
Oh, as if something has taken my mind
[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]
[Chorus]
I hear the Master's voice, magic words from ancient times
I'm feeling strange inside
Oh, as if something has taken my mind
[Verse 2]
In panic, I kick the shelf with the jars
One of them falls from high above to the floor
Red, oh so red, it's blood!
"How dare you disturb my work?"
*Speaks previous line backwards*
[Verse 3]
Demon skull, red as blood
It's in the symbol on the wall, there's something deadly wrong
I feel a sting in my eyes as they're given eternal life
All because of the blood on the floor
Interrupted ritual, oh!
[Guitar Solo: Mike Wead]
[Chorus]
I hear the Master's voice, magic words from ancient times
I'm feeling strange inside
Oh, as if something has taken my mind
[Outro]
He lures away my soul from its shelter and into the cold
To him my soul is gold
Trading souls with this demon is something he knows
As well as Hell
Magic life is his return
Pain in my skin, sin
I feel some kind of magic inside
