Hopeless Host

Feel the pain
(Corroded arteries exposed to cold skin)
Feeding me
(Diastolic curdled oxygen)

I look suspicious when I look in the mirror
Swallow placebo and the mountain gets steeper
Stomach won't digest demons
One wound for every reason, why?

Pills are contagious
Prayers for ageless sight
Monster's religion
Bleed me through to midnight

Peeking red
(Another episode of playing pretend)
Medicine
(Cut the feed for one moment)
Release endorphins then it's over

Hands of the shadows grope at dirty diseases
Somebody tell me why I should believe this
One more unknown condition
One wound for every reason, why?

Pills are contagious
Prayers for ageless sight
Monster's religion
Bleed me through to midnight

Pills are contagious
(Pills are contagious)
Prayers for ageless sight
Monster's religion
(Monster's religion)
One more, one more

Try as I may
Inside this creature's still alive
Try as I may
Inside this creature's still alive

Focus on the fire burning virus in me
Hopeless host hooked to a wire keeping me
Focused on the fire burning virus that is me
A hopeless host, a hopeless host
A hopeless host, a hopeless host
A hopeless host

Sickness, sickness is crumbling me
Born into disease, stomach won't digest demons
Mother please, I beg just finish the stitch
Sew me up to live
