There is a parasite in me I'm beyond certain now It's telling me it's helpful Feeding off it's vows It curled itself up in my chest I never felt a thing It started pumping, fluids false And still I felt no sting I think it is connected To my warped spine For though my brain says one thing The worms word is divine I have a pretty lover Who sits with me and stays But the thing says see the others And my attention strays I don't know if I can fight it For though I know I strive This nasty grotesque creature Is keeping me alive

The Parasite
There is a parasite in me I'm beyond certain now It's telling me it's helpful Feeding off it's vows It curled itself up in my chest I never felt a thing It started pumping, fluids false And still I felt no sting I think it is connected To my warped spine For though my brain says one thing The worms word is divine I have a pretty lover Who sits with me and stays But the thing says see the others And my attention strays I don't know if I can fight it For though I know I strive This nasty grotesque creature Is keeping me alive
