“Parasite” By Andrew Robinson [INTRO] [VERSE] It drips right off your tender luscious lips And spills around your strangled clumsy grip I watch you lick it up, up off the floor All the feelings that you have out worn It confuses splinters And buries itself Impatient shakes That carve your hell I watch you paint it on Over your skin All the feelings That swell within [PRECHORUS] So you are When you fall Divine And you are When you’re gone Still mine {VERSE] You burn right up through all your colors Blister to frays rapt like no other I watch you thirst it down affections pressed Thick in the ink your heart’s mute confess [PRECHORUS] So you are When you fall Divine And you are When you’re gone Still mine [CHORUS] Please wake me from This heartless home My dear Throw me to the stars Please wake me from This love so denied My dear Tell me you’re not far [POSTCHORUS] [VERSE] Blushed in the glow of cinder’s cutting smoke I consume the dust and you let me choke Such rich pleasure, oh, such retreat I arm my best jealousy at your feet So playful on The butcher’s block But the wolf is dead And so is the flock You splay their smiles You tear their tears But no one knows It’s you you fear [PRECHORUS] So you are When you fall Divine And you are When you’re gone Still mine [CHORUS] Please wake me from This heartless home My dear Throw me to the stars Please wake me from This love so denied My dear Tell me you’re not far [BRIDGE/SOLO] [CHORUS] So you are When you fall Divine And you are When you’re gone Still my Home, my hollow heart
