you’re symbiotic by choice
with venomous teeth
you bite the hand that feeds
a parasite disguised as a seed
you’re dying inside
why do you stay alive
with a poisonous touch
so you care too much
you god damn sadistic lush
Pre Chorus:
climbing your way through
and now I watch you
Chorus:
claim a crown on wounded knees
from a cell you say your free
seek the source
not hard
infection in my scars
the fire in my eyes
it burns this hate of mine
your alive but dead inside
your heart resides on a gilded throne
like a serpent you wait
just to put holes in my faith
with a devilish kiss
you say its salvation’s way
but then play the healed as you decay
you gave up your life
when you submit to the vice
the obsidian hand
has your dismay
the hope inside I gave away
Pre chorus
climbing your way through
and now I watch you
chorus
claim a crown on wounded knees
from a cell you say your free
seek the source
not hard
infection in my scars
the fire in your eyes
it burns this hate of mine
your alive but dead inside
your heart resides on the gilded throne
Its in your eyes
you’re just made up of lies
I called you
an empty life
cause you venom and you called it home
you leech you damn monster
what says you’re a saint
when all that you offer is nothing but bait for
giving me fruit that is rotten inside
but I’ll take your poison and turn it to wine
I burn
choking it back just to watch you die
you leech you damn monster
what says you’re a saint
when all that you offer is nothing but bait for
giving me fruit that is rotten inside
but I’ll take your poison and turn it to wine
