Icons Crown

Scratch off the skin to find the emptiness
The bitterness I feel
Pull off the mask in search of the ugliness
The maliciousness you conceal

Then it struck me like a match in the dark
Illuminating my eyes with the spark
That you're probably gonna end up alone
'Cause you keep torching everybody that you've
Known all along you were damaged goods

You're a parasite
Parasite
Sucking on the mindless and the weak
Spreading disease
Your ego and greed
Plotting while we sleep

You're a parasite
Parasite
You've always been a liar and a fake
But you manipulate the shape that you take
Coveting a life of endless fame

Crawl through the labyrinths filled with spitefulness
And with a venomous disease
To fall prey to my empathy
And make believe you wouldn't cut me down at the knees

But I was searching high and low
For anything that would have shown
There was a sliver a soul inside
But then it hit me like a brick inside the head
It made me sick that I wasted so much time

You're a parasite
Parasite
Sucking on the mindless and the weak
Spreading disease
Your ego and greed
Plotting while we sleep

You're a parasite
Parasite
You've always been a liar and a fake
But you manipulate the shape that you take
Coveting a life of endless fame

Dancing around like a clown
Showing everyone around
How the son wears the icons' crown

Na na na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na na na

Nothing but hollow bones in a flesh suit
Masquerading as a man with a heart who
Shows a smile like a politician has to
An empty gesture from a too bad jester
We'll always know

You're a parasite
Parasite
Sucking on the mindless and the weak
Spreading disease
Your ego and greed
Plotting while we sleep

You're a parasite
Parasite
You've always been a liar and a fake
But you manipulate the shape that you take
Coveting a life of endless fame

Parasite, parasite
Plotting while we sleep
Parasite, parasite
Na na na na na na na na na na na na
