Medusa

When all you have left are your memories

And diamonds and pearls for company

I'll be sailing to Saint Lucia on the ocean breeze

With the moon and my scars for company

In your bedroom you keep an iron cage

Where a blackbird sings her freedom song

For you know the true value of having slaves

They sing the saddest of songs

Medusa, you robbed me of my youth

Abandoned me on the tropic of solitude

Seducer of the shipwrecked and forlorn

You told me to undress, then crowned my head with thorns

Medusa, you robbed me of my youth

Abandoned me on the tropic of solitude

Seducer of the shipwrecked and forlorn

You told me to get dressed then turned my heart to stone
