[Verse] It's crazy how capable you are Slipping through cracks You dodge like shadows Leave no tracks Your words They glitter A polished disguise But truth's reflection burns in my eyes You wear a crown of borrowed gold A throne of webs Your lies unfold Spin your tales But they won't hold [Prechorus] In the hive The nest The den The ground We see your kind We hear the sound [Chorus] Parasite Oh you take and take Never build Just break Just break You never mend You only use And then pretend Taking up the space Calling it their fate [Verse 2] The spider spins The ants align But you You feast on borrowed time A hollow echo A shell that clings Seeking gold in broken things [Bridge] In the hive You'd be cast out No honey made Just greed devout In the wild They'd sniff you out [Chorus] Parasite Oh you take and take Never build Just break Just break You never mend You only use And then pretend Taking up the space Calling it their fate [Verse 3] You plant no seeds You steal the fruit No roots to ground No strings to lute Empty hands But a thief's pursuit Prechorus] The queen The worker The hunter The prey All have a purpose But you decay [Chorus] Parasite Oh you take and take Never build Just break Just break Hollow heart You can't disguise A leech beneath a thin disguise
