The Muse Lyrics

You're a diamond I'm afraid to touch
You're damn near flawless and I'm sure you'd cut
Out my eyes, my hands, my head, my heart
You tear this canvas skin apart
Oh what a waste of human art that be

You're a dungeon but you're made of glass
Prisoners have no idea they're trapped
'Cause you look so beautiful inside
It makes them feel like they’re alive
But Lord knows they’ll never survive your walls

But didn't you know that all along
You didn't need to hear your song
And if you don't know that then you might as well be dead

Medusa's child preserved her former looks
She kept her out of all the story books
Just to get back at all of the men
Who had tried time and time again
To claim the right of her demise and end

A million years go by and you're still around
You're knocking us off of our feet You're knocking us down
But we still can't leave you alone
The way you move one would be prone
To want to be turned into stone by you

But didn't you know that all along
You didn't need to hear your song
And if you don't know that then you might as well be dead

She makes me feel so alive
But as consequence I want to be dead
Was it how she arrived? I can't tell
Or was it in the way she left me here

La la la la
Lalala
Lalala
Lalala
x4

But didn't you know that all along
You didn't need to hear your song
And if you don't know that then you might as well be dead

But didn’t you know that all along
You didn’t need to hear your song
And if you don’t know that then you might as well
You might as well
You might as well
You might as well oh
