lyrics
today i am medusa, don't you look too hard
today i am medusa, don't you look too hard
today i am medusa, don't you look too hard
today i am demeter, don't you take what's mine
today i am demeter, don't you take what's mine
today i am demeter, don't you take what's mine
today i am cassandra, don't you tell me lies
today i am cassandra, don't you tell me lies
today i am cassandra, don't you tell me lies

i’d feel so much better if my body was not mine
i’d feel so much better if my body was not mine
i’d feel so much better if my body was not mine
i’d feel so much better if my body was not mine
so take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all
take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all
i’d feel satisfying in the belly of the beast
i’d feel satisfying in the belly of the beast
i’d feel satisfying in the belly of the beast
i’d feel satisfying in the belly of the beast
so take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all
take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all
i’ll feel like a winner when there’s nothing left to lose
i’ll feel like a winner when there’s nothing left to lose
i’ll feel like a winner when there’s nothing left to lose
i’ll feel like a winner when there’s nothing left to lose
so take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all
take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all, take it over
take it all
