Parasites |
| Oh persistence prolonged |
| I’ve been writing these songs about righting my wrongs |
| Temptation to test my resolve |
| The craving had left but never had gone |
| These thoughts, they keep me awake |
| Try to move on, just keep running in place |
| Like a sickness that I could not shake |
| Swallowing lies like medicine and wait for them to take |
| Never gonna change, never gonna change, never gonna change, we’re never gonna |
| change, never gonna change, never gonna change |
| (I can change, my wanting ways, breaths left to take, make sure they don’t go |
| to waste) |
| Close your eyes, listen close |
| Hear the distant echoes of a life unknown |
| In lies yet there’s truth to be told |
| I guess faking blind is just one way to cope |
| Oh how the wanting endures |
| Clear the smoke from my lungs, still the cough cant be cured |
| You play with fire, you’re gonna get burned |
| You’re gonna get what you deserve |
| They say we’re never gonna change, never gonna change, never gonna change, |
| we’re never gonna change, never gonna change, never gonna change |
| Yes it’s true I’ve been seeing ghosts |
| Of the you I used to know |
| Speaking through the dial tone |
| Reflections in my windows |
| My whole life |
| Spent passive |
| Just passing time |
| Stoic and stagnant |
| Idle for a sign |
| Like a child believes in magic |
| Or some naive rationale |
| To keep these feelings captive |
| All my friends say that I have changed, tell me how do you explain, |
| Their lives take forward course and shape, while I’ve remained in the same damn |
| place |
| Just keep speaking what you’re told to say, fit the mold and play it safe, |
| mark these words upon my grave, «he is not what he became» |
| We are the choices we make I’ve heard, |
| The chances we take I’ve learned |
| The fears that we face, the lessons learn from our mistakes |
| There was something in her eyes, I could not place |
| A feeling from inside, she could not fake |
| No matter best I try, I am never as good as the way she says my name |
| I will be good with just being ok |
| All my life |
| Cynicism |
| Made its way from my lips into my Bloodstream |
| Like parasites |
| Suffering symptoms |
| So long now it seems this sickness is a part of me |
| I will be good, |
| But I can be better, |
| And I will rid of you like a matchstick to the gasoline |
| The flames will rise |
| And burn my eyes |
| I put my faith in a fallacy |
| I will be good, but I could be better |
| (I can change, my wanting ways, breaths left to take, make sure they don’t go |
| to waste) |
| I will be good but I could be better if I tried |
| If I was anyone else this would not be a crime |
