Medusa

Serpents hissing in my head telling me of what im not and what I am
Stuck in the middle of self pity and hatred i swam
Drowning me and reminding me I am not so innocent as the gentle lamb
You keep me from everyone like a shut up clam  
 
Medusa, you've turned my life to rock and stone  
You've made me addicted to losing every drop I own  
 
Red strings from self infliction keep falling
But i cant help it I keep prolonging  
Fixing this mess of constant suffering  
Just holding back all my tears from your horrid whispering
 
Now Medusa, What I am no one will condone
For what I do to myself to them is of the unknown
 
Oh why Medusa  
Thoughts venomous as the cobra
Please put me in a coma
Take me away from this place  
I cant even look at myself, all I see is your ugly face
 
I wish my mirrors were covered inside my head
When you talk to me it makes me dread;
Dreading myself and wishing to be someone else instead
Makes me wish I could put myself into an unceasing slumber in my bed
 
To most just a still shadow I fear
Medusa you keep me stuck alone here
You suffocate and coil around my throat
Swallowing me in whole I've lost all hope
 
Dear Medusa, I wish you were really here with me
So I could blame you  
instead of me
