[Intro — faint heartbeat, whispered female voice] Something touched me. I don’t know what it was. At first, I thought it was nothing. … Then I felt it move. [Verse 1] A little scratch, a sudden sting, Didn’t think much of anything. A tiny mark beneath my arm, No reason yet to feel alarm. By morning, something wasn’t right, A strange sensation deep inside. My heartbeat skipped, my fingers shook, I saw a shadow when I looked. [Pre-Chorus] Something crawling through my veins, Little whispers in my brain. I tried to scream, I tried to fight, But something whispered, “It’s alright.” [Chorus] Symbiosis, s-s-symbiosis, Something inside me’s taking notice. Every heartbeat, every breath, I can feel you moving underneath my chest. Symbiosis, don’t let go, There’s something in me I don’t know. F-f-feel it, taking control, Are you the parasite or am I your home? [Verse 2] The fever came, then disappeared, And suddenly the world was clear. I heard the rain beyond the glass, Could feel the seconds slowly pass. The colours burned, the air felt sweet, A second rhythm joined my heartbeat. I should’ve been afraid of you, But God, I loved the things you do. [Pre-Chorus] Every nerve awake tonight, Every little touch amplified. I used to wish you’d disappear, Now I hate it when you aren’t near. [Chorus] Symbiosis, s-s-symbiosis, Something inside me’s taking notice. Every heartbeat, every breath, I can feel you moving underneath my chest. Symbiosis, don’t let go, There’s something in me I don’t know. F-f-feel it, taking control, Are you the parasite or am I your home? [Bridge — slow, intimate whispers] They said they could remove you. They said I’d be myself again. … But what if I don’t want to? What if this is better? … I can feel you listening. Can you feel me too? [Breakdown — layered whispers, distorted heartbeat] One heartbeat… Two minds… Your thoughts… Or mine? F-f-feel… B-b-breathe… We’re becoming something new. [Final Chorus — deep, swelling bass, increasingly hypnotic vocals] Symbiosis, s-s-symbiosis, I don’t remember life before this. Every heartbeat, every breath, There’s something beautiful beneath my chest. Symbiosis, don’t let go, You’re the only thing that makes me whole. F-f-feel it, losing control, I don’t know where you end and where I begin. [Outro — soft, unsettling whisper] The doctors called you an infection. They said you were killing me. … Funny. I’ve never felt more alive. … We haven’t, have we?
