Seduce the Medusa

I'm lookin' for peace inside of you
I get so weak inside of you
My demons seem to hide the truth
Beneath your skin and perfume
I'm lookin for peace inside of you
On my knees, I cry for you
My demons seem to hide the truth
Seduce the Medusa in you

Wrapped inside of this shell
Mapping all of my failures
Only person could've helped me was me
And I failed you
Monster, deadly, havin no conscious
Infatuation been squandered, killer villain with a flawless win against a novice
Every time I look to you
You see right through me, and time pauses
Hard to think it through, when my nemesis is in my closet
Your ignorance by far is the catalyst to split my noggin
Far from living by sky stars, through fog and mist I find I'm heartless
Entering the depths of your caves, I wept for ten days, I slept with the snakes
Hard to envision the enemy with fangs when I keep on revisiting curves in my face
Oedipus, blind to the things which define my purpose
Gave my all to you, was certain
You'd complete the first and last of verses
Scriptures in my story, but so distorted, I gave annointings to leeches I never should've appointed
Ignoring you, I created torment
If I could take it all back I would, I'd treat you different for sure
I should've never looked at you, venom seeping through
There's no cure

I'm lookin for peace inside of you
I get so weak inside of you
My demons seem to hide the truth
Beneath your skin and perfume
I'm lookin for peace inside of you
On my knees, I cry for you
My demons seem to hide the truth
Seduce the Medusa in you

So, many times, I looked into your eyes and turned you to stone
So, many lies, each time amplified, they continued to grow
I, am defined, by the infection I spread, there's no contest
Between the two of us, wean the fruit of lust, from your breast
I lie in depths, uterus
A great beast inside me, definition of a mythological premonition
Physical demolition of the feelings I hid within me
Comforting spirits never gave serenity since the beginning
Now you feel that you should leave, see that the gorgon lives in me
Keep all the torment underneath, now awakened, it's all because of me
My mistakes, seduced the medusa inside you, bringing life to the darker side
Behind your eyes lies a monster rivalling my assumptions
Character that you never wanted
Spending years on a quest, not knowing
The sum of us is the god of monsters
None of us can suppress the gorgon

I'm lookin for peace inside of you
I get so weak inside of you
My demons seem to hide the truth
Beneath your skin and perfume
I'm lookin for peace inside of you
On my knees, I cry for you
My demons seem to hide the truth
Seduce the Medusa in you

From man to gorgon, vision distorted
My lust for blood is ever-rewarded
From skin to stone, the mistake I atone
My lust for you is forever torture

Do you see the gorgon in my eyes
Before you sleep, before you say goodnight
Goodnight
