deep in this haze, I see her face

she creeps to me, she begs for me

I can not go, not this again

I'm much too weak, I'm conquered

and then I feel myself decline

in the grip of ionia

and then I see myself resign

to the lust for Ionia

and then she takes me down, down, down

and then she keeps me down, down, down

and then she speaks of love, love, love

love, love as misery (as I lose control)

she clings to me, she won't let go

and then she takes this all away

she's tainted me, I'm nothing now

I'm so obscure, I'm conquered

and then I feel myself decline

in the grip of Ionia

and then I see myself resign

to the lust for Ionia

of Ionia, oh Ionia, oh Ionia, oh Ionia

this time is not anything, it's nothing

oh Ionia I swear, that you will haunt me

and I'll never know why I resign all the time

and I reach straight for nothing

oh Ionia I swear, in an instant you're lonely

and just like all the time you will throw this aside

and you'll move on to nothing

oh Ionia I see, through the haze she is fading

oh Ionia I see, as I lose control again
