You're a diamond that I'm afraid to touch

You're damn near flawless and I'm sure you'd cut
       Eb                 F 
Out my eyes, my hands, my head, my heart

You're a dungeon, but you're made of glass
Gm                     Cm
Your prisoners have no idea they're trapped
           Eb            F
'cause you look so beautiful inside
   Dm                 Gm
It makes us feel like we're alive

Medusa's child preserved her former looks
Gm                          Cm
She kept her out of all the storybooks
        Eb              F
just to get back at all of the men
    Dm                  Gm

   D                  D7             Gm     F D Gm
to claim the right of her demise and end

a million years go by and you're still around

You're knocking us off our feet; you're knocking us down
       Eb                F
but we still can't leave you alone
    Dm               Gm
The way you move one would be prone
   D                 D7           Gm
to want to be turned into stone by you

then you might as well be dead

Was it how you arrived?
        Dm             Cm             Eb
I can't tell or was it in the way you left...

You didn't need to hear your song
                Cm           G
'cause you just knew it all along

You didn't know that so

you might as well, might as well be dead
