Consequence Of Man

Verse 1

I know you want to know

But how could a little girl become a monster?

A tale as old as time, but I'll tell it differently tonight

You say, "What is this darkness that is growing?"

It's not, my dear, it's a gift you're bestowed with

A taste of my power, a glimpse of the crown

A queen of a kingdom that's crumbling down

Pre-Chorus

They call me Medusa, the serpent goddess

A fate so cruel, I could never forget it

They call me Medusa, the serpent goddess

The goddess who was once a little innocent

Chorus

A villain you've heard of, but don't know me well

I'll show you the heaven in my own little hell

I'll turn you all to stone 'til you understand

I'm not the evil, I'm the consequence of man

Verse 2

Do you think I chose this?

Do you think that I asked for snakes to grow from my head?

Do you think that I love to watch the tears in your eyes as you turn to stone dead?

Do you think I could ever forgive what they did?

Do you think I could ever forget?

You're all too young to comprehend

But I'll be the worst thing you ever met

Pre-Chorus

They call me Medusa, the serpent goddess

A fate so cruel, I could never forget it

They call me Medusa, the serpent goddess

The goddess who was once a little innocent

Chorus

A villain you've heard of, but don't know me well

I'll show you the heaven in my own little hell

I'll turn you all to stone 'til you understand

I'm not the evil, I'm the consequence of man

Bridge

When my hair started growing

I begged the gods, "Why me?"

I was terrified, scared

But they ignored my plea

And now I'm here to teach you

A lesson that you'll never forget

I'll make you all my prisoners

So you can see what it's like to be me

Chorus

A villain you've heard of, but don't know me well

I'll show you the heaven in my own little hell

I'll turn you all to stone 'til you understand

I'm not the evil, I'm the consequence of man

Outro

You'll know my name, you'll fear my face

I'll be the nightmare you can never erase

I'll tear your kingdom right out of your hands

I am Medusa, the consequence of man
