Perpetuate Medusa lyrics

I live in the shadows
My habits are perilous and grim
My perfume is venom
Acrid and alluring as sin

You'll never be free of me
You can't help it
When you're listening to my voice
You're mesmerized,
Hypnotized

I blacken the headlines
I'm the gruesome story on at ten
I'm the villain in the schoolyard, I'm the prince who shot his father
The grinning teenage mother who drowned her baby daughter

And you'll never be free of me
You can't help it
When you're gazing upon my face
You're petrified,
Paralyzed

Enter my world, see what you'll see
And you will be a firmament, a testament

To the horror that is me

Look in my eyes
I know you can't turn away
Look in my eyes
And you will be my slave

Where is the line? You crossed so long ago
What is this wreck you claim to be soul?
(Where is the line? You crossed so long ago) Where is the line?
(What is this wreck you claim to be soul?) Where lies the soul?

I know you love me
Say you'll never go
You belong to me
This curse is now my throne
Don't you want to touch me?
Can you feel the way it burns?
I'm not stopping
Till the earth has turned to stone
