Silvertongue Lyrics in English
(Verse 1)
In the depths of my mind, where secrets reside,
A silver-tongued devil, with words as his guide.
He weaves his tales, with a cunning disguise,
A master manipulator, with truth in his eyes.
(Chorus)
Oh, silvertongue, your words so sweet,
But behind your charm, lies deceit.
You spin your web, with silver thread,
But I won’t be fooled by the lies you spread.
(Verse 2)
With honeyed words, you paint a pretty scene,
But beneath the surface, darkness unseen.
You twist and turn, with every word you say,
Leaving a trail of broken hearts in your wake.
(Chorus)
Oh, silvertongue, your words so sweet,
But behind your charm, lies deceit.
You spin your web, with silver thread,
But I won’t be fooled by the lies you spread.
(Bridge)
You play with emotions, like a puppeteer,
But I see through your facade, crystal clear.
No longer under your spell, I break free,
From the clutches of your silver tongue’s decree.
(Chorus)
Oh, silvertongue, your words so sweet,
But behind your charm, lies deceit.
You spin your web, with silver thread,
But I won’t be fooled by the lies you spread.
(Outro)
So, silvertongue, your reign will end,
For truth and honesty, I will defend.
No longer swayed by your silver tongue’s sway,
I’ll find my own voice, and pave my own way.
