Parasite

I cling to her like a vine
Draining her love, making it mine
I latch onto her every move
A parasite, I can't improve

I'm a parasite to the one I adore
Sucking her essence, wanting more
I feed on her affection, can't let go
But I know deep down, it's not love, it's woe

I burrow deep into her heart
But I tear it apart, tearing it apart
She's the host, I'm the intruder
My love's a facade, I'm just a user

I'm a parasite to the one I adore
Sucking her essence, wanting more
I feed on her affection, can't let go
But I know deep down, it's not love, it's woe
I'm a parasite to the one I adore
Sucking her essence, wanting more
I feed on her affection, can't let go
But I know deep down, it's not love, it's woe

I thought I needed her to survive
But I see now, it's only to thrive
I'm draining her light, leaving her dim
I'm a parasite, and it's time to swim

I'm a parasite to the one I adore
Sucking her essence, wanting more
I feed on her affection, can't let go
But I know deep down, it's not love, it's woe
I'm a parasite to the one I adore
Sucking her essence, wanting more
I feed on her affection, can't let go
But I know deep down, it's not love, it's woe

I release my grip, set her free
For true love's not about devouring thee
I'll find redemption, I'll find a cure
No longer a parasite, I'll become pure
