Medusa

Acid petals scattered on the ground
Stab the soles of righteous feet
First glance leads straight astray
Into crystal gardens oh so frail

Carry on delusions little serpent
Drop the naive on there knees
Stumble in conceited dreams
And make them turn into stone
To build your castle of lies

Useless fools with credulous eyes
Let you crush them like flies
You're good but not enough
I see through your
Word after calculated word
Soon you will learn
Your trail of crumbs
Will only take you so far

Perfect little stories push your venom
In their veins to lure them in
I swear before today is past
Your faith comes crawling
When the ghosts soar haunting in
Your precious masquerade will burn
Setting free the slaves and crown
Your head in shame in return

Useless fools with credulous eyes
Let you crush them like flies
You're good but not enough
I see through your
Word after calculated word
Soon you will learn
Your trail of crumbs
Will only take you so far

Word after calculated word
Now the tables are turned
Now you have learned
You begged for what you deserve
