PARASITE - Intellectual

[Intro: Nick Detty]

You lie, parasite

[Verse 1: Nick Detty]

Numb, I walk this path

My veins aglow, but still, the Novocain won't last

I feel it break me

Give me my fix, poisonous bliss

Seal it with a venomous kiss

I die, I die

Everybody tries to kill away the pain

With their own brand of Novocain and silence

Nothing I take will drown out the noise that lives inside

Every path that I tread still brings me back inside your jaws

To my open grave

[Chorus: Steve Cobucci & Nick Detty]

Listen to the devil speak

Filling my veins with what I seek

And the venom tastes of your deceit

Listen to the doublespeak

Every single word he spits lies

[Post-Chorus: Nick Detty]

Every time I hear your voice, you lie

You lie

[Verse 2: Nick Detty]

All I hear within

Are voices speaking of the promises of sin

I feel it break me

Give me my fix, poisonous bliss

Seal it with a venomous kiss

I hear you hiss, serpent

[Chorus: Steve Cobucci & Nick Detty]

Listen to the devil speak

Filling my veins with what I seek

And the venom tastes of your deceit

Listen to the doublespeak

And I died a million deaths to live

A parasite that feeds upon my open veins and

Drains the river dry

Why do I feel this love for you

And sing this broken melody?

My enemy still sings his siren song

[Bridge: Steve Cobucci, Steve Cobucci & Nick Detty]

Contaminating

It sinks its claws

Reanimating

The serpent calls

Turning all my fear

Into desire

Boiling in my veins

[Breakdown: Nick Detty]

Boiling in my veins

That hateful leech in my blood

Every single drop inside, poisoned

Circulate in my veins

All of the sin I've chosen

Dissociate misery from the poison

Reanimate the pain it brings

I am the enemy

[Chorus: Steve Cobucci, Steve Cobucci & Nick Detty]
