Leftmore - Parasites Lyrics

So, did your conscience kill all of this?
Was it hard to rid my scent from your senses?
I'm just sitting here, confused as hell
As my brain retells all the things you said
And my eyes are wide
Trying to keep you inside
But they're closing now
Swollen from the fight

And now my head is full of parasites
Snakes and worms that won't let me say goodnight
They burrow underground, it's what they're doing now
I won't be able to get to bed now

Does your conscience keep you from sleep?
Or is it colder than sleet, or the rain at your feet?
I really want to know
If you're half as cold
As your gray eyes
Want you to be
'Cuz I fell in love with the concept of
Your eyes before you let me see

And now my hands are full of broken words
Cuts and scrapes that are yet to sound real good
I'm trying to pick them up
Piece them together so they can work
But pieces keep on slipping through my fingers

So do your hands shake every time you wake
And I'm not with you in the bed?
Or are your nerves just dead
And every time we slept
You could have been
With someone else?
Before I burn these sheets
And all these memories
Just give me something new
To bury me

Well, the snakes and worms
They don't go away
They finish one piece and then
They move right to the next place
Soon there won't be anything left
They'll eat straight through my lonely, wooden chest

At least I won't be alone
