Megara to My Hercules
October 6, 2008
"if there's a prize
for rotten judgement
i guess i've already won that"
but i'm no megara
i'm no beauty
waiting around to trick
dear sweet hercules
no, you see
it was you who played
the tempter's part
i was simply caught in your snares
beautiful people usually are venomous
and i was bitten
my superhuman strength taken from me
in an attempt to save you
from evil's clutches
i don't think my strength
will be restored
you, unlike megara,
won't try to return the favor
that i know for a fact
so...
i won't say i'm in love
