Parasite Core

Bloodless veins of mine
Carry only scorn and sorrow
Heart of gold which once encumbered me
I carry no more
Dim light I had inside has faded away
And it's gone
Like a moth into the flame
I'll burn and fall as one for all

Enemies, nemeses, archvillains of the story
We tell ourselves everyday
To justify our parasitic state
Consume, convert, conform, convey
Delay this escape just to die another day

See our sons, forsaken and undone
Stand alone in line to follow blind

Mask worn for so long
Bеcomes the face of a sеlf erased
Self-absorbed angels of disgrace
Emerge as wraiths
Take me someplace else, away from it all
Away from prosperity, away from the fall
Freedom to sing to the malady of war
Reveals us to be the parasites we are

See our sons, forsaken and undone
Stand alone in line to follow blind

Disconnected discomfort
Pushes us parasites towards
Desperation thus defeat
Let the agony of a new day begin

See our sons, forsaken and undone
Stand alone in line to follow blind
