Parasite

"Play it safe
Play it numb
You're a pawn in this don't
Spread your love
Kindness is a weakness
Vultures prey
On every heart not made of stone
Here's a voice
But you can't speak
Here's a choice but it's made
Before you step a foot into the door here
Cue the lights
You're gonna be a fucking star"
I'd rather waste a thousand lives
Than live this one for you
And I fall a thousand times
I'll get back up
Could you
So take your bloodshot eyes
And plastic knives
Go feed on someone new
And at night I hope something's
Feeding on you too
You fucking parasite
"All it takes is everything
Sell your soul and we'll cash
Out on all the mindless entertainment
Lights will be so bright
That you'll go blind"
I refuse to be controlled
Just to fit your agenda
So take your pitch
Go and find a new throat
To shove it down
I can do this on my own
I'd rather waste a thousand lives
Than live this one for you
And I fall a thousand times
I'll get back up
Could you
So take your bloodshot eyes
And plastic lies
Go feed on someone new
And at night I hope something's
Feeding on you too
You fucking parasite
Legacy means more to me
Than the money tree
Or expensive things
The fingerprints I leave
Whether it be
In the basement or on the throne
They will be my own
I'd rather waste a thousand lives
Than live this one for you
And I fall a thousand times
I'll get back up
Could you
So take your bloodshot eyes
And plastic lives
Go feed on someone new
And at night I hope something's
Feeding on you too
You fucking parasite
