I was searching so long

For the words I promised you

But when I finally found what I had to say

It was already too late

I’d lost your eyes gaze

Medusa’s known for

Turning men to stone

Those eyes...

Will always be my kryptonite

I never really knew

What to say you

That didn’t make me sound

Like some joker-clown

Oh dear,

I found the words

In a shattered heart:

You brought a light

To a world so dark

You brought a light

To a world so dark

I’m living with a thorny thought

The flowers say she loves me not

Pick the petals all away

Till the garden’s like my dreams
