"The Host Will Soon Decay" lyrics

"The Host Will Soon Decay"
(feat. Manuel Gagneux)

A parasitic plea
Consume and discard
Resembling a leech
Devour and depart
Conscious victim
Clinging to your pain
Salvation couldn't shield you
From the innocence you claim

Imposter
You live your lucid dream
Imposter
Take everything from me

Pillaging the flesh
From outstretched arms of kin
Starvation unsuppressed
A famine forged within
(Decay)
The host will soon decay
(Dissolve)
As beating hearts dissolve
Departing veins disintegrate, a pulse absolved

Drain the life of those you love

Abandoned by all but your reflection

Shadows couldn't show
An outline of the fiend
Pulling at the strings around your throat
Tight enough to make you choke
Tight enough to make you choke
(The host will soon decay)

Drain the life of those you love
Drain the life of those you love

(The host will soon decay)
(The host will soon decay)
(The host will soon decay)
(The host will soon decay)
