When all you have left
are your memories
and diamonds and pearls
for company
I'll be sailing to Saint Lucia
on the ocean breeze
with the moon
and my scars
for company
In your bedroom
you keep an iron cage
where a blackbird
sings her freedom song
For you know
the true value of having slaves
They sing
the saddest of songs
Medusa
you robbed me of my youth
abandoned me
on the tropic of solitude
Seducer
of the shipwrecked
and forlorn
You told me to undress
then crowned my head
with thorns
Medusa
you robbed me of my youth
abandoned me
on the tropic of solitude
Seducer
of the shipwrecked
and forlorn
You told me to get dressed
then turned my heart to stone
