Look Into My Eyes

Medusa: "So…

you’re Perseus.

The hero who came to kill me."

Perseus: "They told me what you were." Medusa: "Then they lied." Medusa:

"You came searching for a monster

With a sword inside your hand

You heard the stories of a killer

Before you ever saw who I am

You were told to fear my eyes You were told I had

no soul But you never heard the woman Who was hiding here

alone"

Medusa:

"So before you raise your weapon Before you end my life

Ask yourself one question… Do you really know why?"

Medusa: "LOOK INTO MY EYES!

SEE THE WOMAN I WAS!

SEE THE LIFE THEY STOLE FROM ME!

SEE WHAT THEY’VE MADE OF US!

LOOK INTO MY EYES!

DON’T CALL ME A MONSTER!

IF YOU HAVE TO KILL ME… AT LEAST KNOW WHO YOU’RE KILLING!"

Perseus: "I was told you killed the innocent I was told you

wanted blood I was told that every man who came Would never

make it out But you don’t look like a monster You look

terrified of me

And suddenly the story Doesn’t look the way it used to" Medusa:

"Because you only heard their story." Perseus: "Then tell me yours." Medusa:

"I was human."

Medusa: "I had dreams… I had a name… I knew what love

felt like… Then they changed me.

And when I survived… They called my survival evil." Perseus: "I’m sorry."

Medusa: "Don’t be sorry.

Just don’t lie about me." Perseus: "If I walk away… They’ll send

someone else." Medusa: "I know."

Perseus: "If I kill you… They’ll call me a hero." Medusa: "I

know." (shhh) Medusa: "That’s the cruelest part." Medusa: "I WAS NOT BORN

A MONSTER!

YOU MADE ME ONE!

I DID NOT CHOOSE THESE EYES!

I DID NOT CHOOSE THIS LIFE!

BUT I WILL NOT DIE

BEGGING FOR YOUR MERCY!"

Perseus: "THEN RUN!" Medusa: "I CAN’T." Perseus: "Why?!" Medusa: "Because everyone who

looks at me… Turns to

stone." Medusa: "LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK!"

Perseus: "I’m sorry…" Medusa: "Then remember me." Perseus: "You were never the

monster…" Medusa: "I know…

Now you do too."

Medusa: "LOOK INTO MY EYES!

REMEMBER WHO I WAS!

I WAS MORE THAN JUST A MONSTER!

I WAS MORE THAN WHAT THEY SAID!

LOOK INTO MY EYES!

REMEMBER MY NAME! THE WORLD MAY TELL YOUR STORY… BUT YOU KNOW

THE TRUTH!" Medusa: "REMEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeEMBER MEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Perseus: "They’ll call me the hero… They’ll

call you the monster… But I know the truth." Medusa: "Before the

snakes… I was human."
