Alter Ego Parasite

Hold me tight and forget my name
Got some cooler party to attend
Someone else to call a friend
Deeper observations to comprehend
But I think it's just pretend
Dramatic at whose expense?
A parasite consumes its own end
Convinced of being reptilian
How could I leave the cobweb of dreams?
It simulates empathy
Stay with me, electricity
How could I leave the cobweb of dreams?
I find myself through smoke and mirrors
We all pretend to be human here

Said you're scared of what comes at night
It doesn't have a face but it can smile
Oh I know, I know the type
Give me nightmares, the kind I like
Change but first you gotta pretend
Why be you if you hate yourself?
You're free, you can be anything
Baby I was replaced, I'm the changeling
How could I leave the cobweb of dreams?
It simulates empathy
Stay with me, electricity
How could I leave the cobweb of dreams?
I find myself through smoke and mirrors
We all pretend to be human here
"So who am I?" pondered the changeling
Don't you feel sorry for them?
Money's all they could ever offer
Don't you feel sorry for them?
Money's all
How could I leave the cobweb of dreams?
It simulates empathy
Stay with me, electricity
How could I leave the cobweb of dreams?
I find myself through smoke and mirrors
We all pretend to be human here
Don't you feel sorry for them?
Money's all they could ever offer
Don't you feel sorry for them?
Money's all
Don't you feel sorry for them?
Money's all they could ever offer
Don't you feel sorry for them?
Money's all

Yeah, we all pretend to be human
