Medusa

It's just a matter of course now

Like some ritual or formality,

that's guiding me

Violent flows the venomous dance

Chasing through the system in a frenzy

of enhancement

Addicted to your belladonna kiss

I am running in the shadows

Anonymous, invisible to all the world but you

How can you be so proud of the

things you do

 

Medusa! Hollow words and promises

Bow down in servitude before this throne

Medusa! You always know my weaknesses

 

Only with a heart of anger

Could you freeze the lifeblood in my veins

Only with a heart of anger

Could you bleed the strength,

put out the flame

 

Poisoned by your belladonna kiss

I am trapped in the web

I am drowning in the bitterness

 

and all that I can pray

Is that I die in your embrace again

 

Medusa! Hollow words and promises

Bow down in servitude before this throne

Medusa! You always know my weaknesses

I turn to stone

 

All I need is a bloodstained jewel

Or a poisonous flower

All I yearn for is the siren's cry

Or the torment and endurance

in the final hour

 

Medusa! Hollow words and promises

Bow down in servitude before this throne

Medusa! You always know my weaknesses

Oh! I'm paralyzed before this vision

Medusa! Hollow words and promises

Bow down in servitude before this throne

Medusa! You always know my weaknesses

I turn to stone

 

Addicted to your belladonna kiss

I am running in the shadows

Anonymous, invisible
