[slow instrumental intro] [Verse] You can open your eyes, i must keep 'em closed you can open your heart, i should keep it closed you can look at me, i can't look at you I'm a monster, and i don't want to hurt you [chorus] Eyes of the Medusa, a curse born from belief Life of the Medusa, an existence of hate without relief Sins of the Medusa, none, yet gods punished me Fate of the Medusa, hated by the gods for our "beauty" [verse 2] do you see now? why i must be vile do you see now? why we had to hide on the shapeless isle do you see now? why i cant just smile? do you see now? I was just a monster in a hero's trial. [chorus] Eyes of the Medusa, a curse born from belief Life of the Medusa, an existence of hate without relief Sins of the Medusa, none, yet gods punished me Fate of the Medusa, hated by the gods for our "beauty" [Bridge] I was not born a monster, but they made me one Twisted by their judgment, nowhere left to run Stone by stone, they buried us, alone and forsaken Driven to madness i slew my own kin [final chorus] Eyes of the Medusa, a curse born from belief Life of the Medusa, an existence of hate without relief Sins of the Medusa, none, yet gods punished me Fate of the Medusa, hated by the gods for our "beauty"
