"Parasite" lyrics

"Parasite"

I can see my corpse in reflections
She's sitting in the corner of my eye
Following close in my shadow, like a ghost
From her, there's nowhere I can hide
I can't sleep at night anymore
The terrors take control over my mind
Take what I want most, now my body's just a host
I can't rid myself of this parasite

Eat me like a cannibal, cannibal
Treat me like an animal, animal
Feed me paracetamol, I've tried 'em all
Empty means nothing to me
(Where you going honey?)
Echoes in the corridor, corridor
Creeping like a carnivore, carnivore
I don't know me anymore, anymore
Hide under the sheets
(Where you going honey?)

I can see my corpse in reflections
She's sitting in the corner of my eye
Following close in my shadow, like a ghost
From her, there's nowhere I can hide
I can't sleep at night anymore
The terrors take control over my mind
Take what I want most, now my body's just a host
I can't rid myself of this parasite

Eat me like a cannibal, cannibal
Treat me like an animal, animal
Feed me paracetamol, I've tried 'em all
Empty means nothing to me (I'm a parasite)
Living in hypocrisy, hypocrisy (I'm a parasite)
It isn't just anxiety, anxiety (I'm a parasite)
9-1-1 emergency, help my heart, it won't stop beating
