Lyrics
An entity separated from the conscious self
Silenced like a misbehaved slave
Occupying hidden space within unconscious shell
Never ceasing to plot its eventual escape
Meant to be confined within a maze of dusty ciphers
Separated, violated, denied all control
Aeons of struggle, wars, monstrosities and demons
Just allowed to surface when crisis meets the soul
A dynamic comparable to Babylon and Zion
One preaches peace while the other's sabers gleam
A tribe kept in chains, starved and praying for salvation
Startled by the cruel voice that echoes through the mind and screams:
Oh greatest of empires, helpless in demise
Behold thyself in foray for purity
For evermore enraptured
In everlasting anarchy
Watch as I - PARASITE - conquer supremacy
A scavenger crawling freely under the foundations
Venomous fangs carry malice in their tips
A twisted leach, slithering into the host's sensations
Nauseating ichor dripping from each of its hits
Fearful of infection through contact with the poison
The mangled host rushes through the maze in pure dismay
Yet corruption penetrates through the breaches on the walls
Seizing full control at last, the new king loudly proclaims:
Thy lament for salvation
Panacea for the soul
May you perish at the gates, oh great city of gold
All hope be forsaken, for thine end is nigh
Through smothered screams, nothing remains to be feared
Thou art lord no more
Know thy crown shall depart
Now choke on most dire gasps for air
Then lay silent as I - PARASITE - stand tall
