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
