I'm tied to the mast as I ... ? Options

[Tips]

I'm trying to decipher the lyrics to The Turn (since we don't have the official ones anywhere). Here's what I got for Siren's Call:

I count the ways you turn me on
I calculate the gravity of your song

Sirens calling
I count the ways you turn me on

Crack of your whip, taking the hit
I'm caught in your grip
And now you thought you'd fool me

I count the days since we went wrong
I contemplate a world where you're gone

Sirens calling
The angle of incidence meets my reflection

Crack of your whip, taking the hit
I'm caught in your grip
And now you thought you'd fool me

I can hear the siren's calling
Save myself I can't my darling (in concert he says "take my hand I cant my darling")

The reflection of your eyes
Disappears in mirror's mind

I'm tied to the mast
As I ??

As I what? We can't hear it on the record because of the effect, almost impossible to hear it on a bootleg and he skips that part when they play it acoustic.

Thanks

Is it, "As I pass him by" ? or "As I pass him on by" ?

And it sounds like he's singing, "Crack up your whip, begin the hit, I'm caught in your grip, and now you thought you want me".. or "warned me." Who knows?

I had "As I pass through the black"

I got that from the acoustic performances. I may be wrong but that's what I'm hearing
