“Each One With Their Medusa” personifies the inner fears we all carry — traumas, insecurities, and old wounds — in the figure of Medusa. The song proposes a journey of confrontation and acceptance of these shadows, transforming the monster into a teacher. Instead of running away or becoming petrified by fear, the song invites us to face it with compassion and courage.

Each One With Their Medusa

[Verse 1]
There’s a silence in the mirror I avoid,
A whisper wrapped in scales and void.
She waits behind my weary eyes,
With frozen truths I’ve tried to hide.

She’s not a curse, she’s not a myth,
She lives in every shallow breath.
In every step I try to fake,
She coils around the ground I shake.

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve worn a mask made out of stone,
But every night, I’m not alone…

[Chorus]
Each one with their Medusa—
A fear we dare not name.
A gaze that turns us inward,
Where love and shame are flames.
She’s mine beneath the surface,
And yours behind your smile.
We walk with silent monsters,
In beauty and denial.

[Verse 2]
She grew inside my childhood screams,
In shattered glass and haunted dreams.
No sword can cut, no shield can block,
The echo in a ticking clock.

We paint her face on someone else,
We hide her deep on dusty shelves.
But in the dark, the serpents hiss—
“Come face the pain you still resist.”

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m not afraid to speak her name—
The one who taught me I’m to blame…

[Chorus]
Each one with their Medusa—
A fear we cage in gold.
A scream behind a whisper,
A truth we never told.
She’s mine behind the silence,
And yours in quiet cries.
She turns us into statues
With sorrow in our eyes.

[Bridge]
So I looked into her face tonight,
And saw my shadow bathed in light.
She didn’t bite, she didn’t burn—
She only asked, “When will you learn?”

[Final Chorus]
Each one with their Medusa—
A wound that holds our voice.
A mirror made of thunder,
A terror, not a choice.
She’s mine—and now I see her,
Not monster, but my guide.
I walk with her in silence…
And fear no truth I hide.
