Rasputin Lyrics
Look in these eyes of changing dyes
Let me dissolve your moral ties
I'll tranquilize I'll tantalize
I'll move you with my lusty sighs
Beyond darkened paths
you call my name
You want me
You need me...
I am Rasputin
let me draw you in
Take this evil grin
and love me for my sins
With mystic touch
life in my clutch
Cling to me like an evil crutch
Saint or sinner, friend or foe?
I am the saviour you'll never know
I am Rasputin
let me draw you in
Take this evil grin
and love me for my sins
Withen this spell my soul to sell
I'll carve your winding path to hell
Saint or sinner, friend or foe?
I am the saviour you'll never know
I am Rasputin
let me draw you in
Take this evil grin
and love me for my sins
My plans unfold
these truths I've sold
From God I'm sent
or so I'm told
Let me dissolve your moral ties
I'll tranquilize I'll tantalize
I'll move you with my lusty sighs
you call my name
You want me
You need me...
let me draw you in
Take this evil grin
and love me for my sins
life in my clutch
Cling to me like an evil crutch
Saint or sinner, friend or foe?
I am the saviour you'll never know
let me draw you in
Take this evil grin
and love me for my sins
I'll carve your winding path to hell
Saint or sinner, friend or foe?
I am the saviour you'll never know
let me draw you in
Take this evil grin
and love me for my sins
these truths I've sold
From God I'm sent
or so I'm told

He was more than that. He was famed for being a man of mystery. He wooed women, healed people and made his enemies do his bidding. He is a hypnotic being that could predict things. He also got killed like 4 or 5 times (aka he just didn't die) He got poisoned, shot, stabbed, beaten and finally drowned. He knew he was going to be killed as well.
Back to the song. It just displays how Rasputin was a mystery man. Was he a savior or sinner, who knows?
Actually the site says its "I'll tranquilize I'll tantalize". Oh, and ehm its spelled Rasputin.
I corrected the lyrics. :D
Anyway - this song to me seems to be about a dark person who seduces someone else into their world through passion, mystery and lust. That's just what I think when I hear the song (and, Rasputin was famed for seducing women.)
I absolutely ADORE this song. It's so hypnotic and creepy and fast and slow.... It's just another wonderful masterpiece by the brilliant Johnny Hollow. It's absolutely fantastic.
Phantomime pretty much explained it. Rasputin was a mystic who no one quite knew whether he was good or evil. There are stories of him saving a hemophiliac and then there are stories of him raping nuns. No one knows what is and isn't true, for the most part. He had many people under his dark spell and I think that's really what the mood in this song conveys---it's like adrenaline, like your heart pounding, like you're not in control anymore. It's a scary feeling. I love it.
