Soul Leeches

[Verse 1] They smile from marble halls with perfect teeth Whispering comfort while they sink in deep They tell you suffering is virtue, pain is grace Then drink the sorrow pouring down your face [Pre-Chorus] They never fix what’s broken, they just feed They plant the rot and watch the garden bleed And when the well runs dry in one more town They open up the borders and drag new victims down [Chorus] Soul leeches… 魂の蛭 They drink the pain and call it medicine Soul leeches… 魂の蛭 They sell the chains and swear they’re setting you free They grow fat on the broken and the poor Then cry for more when there’s nothing left to take anymore 魂の蛭 They’ll drain the world and still ask for more [Verse 2] They hand you poison with a caring tone Tell you it’s healing while they break your bones They cheer the fire, then sell you water for the burn And every time you drink, they watch you squirm [Pre-Chorus] They never run out of lost souls to collect They’ll empty one city and move on to the next Compassion is the mask they wear with pride While they’re harvesting the ruin left behind [Chorus] Soul leeches… 魂の蛭 They drink the pain and call it medicine Soul leeches… 魂の蛭 They sell the chains and swear they’re setting you free They grow fat on the broken and the poor Then cry for more when there’s nothing left to take anymore 魂の蛭 They’ll drain the world and still ask for more [Bridge] I’ve seen the bodies they leave in their wake Smiling faces on the news while the cities break They don’t want solutions, they want supply And they’ll never stop until the well runs dry [Final Chorus] Soul leeches… 魂の蛭 They drink the pain and call it medicine Soul leeches… 魂の蛭 They sell the chains and swear they’re setting you free I load the silver, I speak the rite Some monsters learned to govern in the light 魂の蛭 And I came here to cut them from the vine [Outro] 魂の蛭… They’ll never stop feeding Until there’s nothing left to bleed
