Parasite

Solidified
A mutation born beneath the flesh
Transfixed
Resting in the cavernous depths
These desolate reaches
Blackened tar obfuscating avenue
Stepping barefoot deeper inside
Shadows dart to the sides
Sweat builds as the ending becomes clear

Lay heavy my eyes
Carrying crosses through these barren wastes
Imprisoned by every lesson etched in my flesh
Is this my education or my indoctrination?
My sanctuary has become my own persecution
An absent spot in my mind
My consciousness intertwines
The venom pulses beneath my veins
And I can feel the twitch of the chains
A proxy from the mind to seal my fate
Fragment and collapse through all I hate

As the clock ticks on
And the end seems closer now
The vial tips over but never makes a sound
I'm terrified of these machinations
Madmen weep
As we teeter on the edge
With nowhere left to hide
There is nowhere left to hide

Pull the stitches from my mouth
Still the words won't scream out
Buried deep inside
The premonition cascading through my mind

When at the end of the line
Do I choose suicide?
Tainted in my self doubt
My life is a blackout

When at the end of the line
Do I choose suicide?
Tainted in my self doubt
My life's a fucking blackout

As the clock ticks on
And the end seems closer now
The vial tips over but never makes a sound
I'm terrified of these machinations
Madmen weep
As we teeter on the edge
With nowhere left to hide

When at the end
What will I sacrifice?

Thoughts of you stalk my memory
I'm running circles in my mind
Thoughts of you stalk my memory
What will I sacrifice?
