lyrics

Chemical Medusa. really quite a sight
Engine to caboose, girl
Why we got to fight?
Chemical Medusa
The bulb inside your mind’s
Screwed in kind of loose with logic hard to find
You’re a poison valentine
Chemical Medusa
Mouth so full of rage
Time to call a truce to this battle that you’ve waged
Chemical Medusa
So much to say, so little time
Who can posit truth to this warrior of mine?
Sweet Medusa, it’s a crime
Why did I, why did I ever give you reason?
Why did I, why did I ever give you currency?
Why did I, why did I ever leave?
Chemical Medusa, running off the rails
You got to be fast to run from your past and you’re bound to fail
Chemical Medusa, toxic as can be
Love is like a noose, girl, and it’s choking me
Time to set this trouble free
