Parasite

Parasite (feat. Jack Bergin)

Afterlife (Demo)

[Intro]
You didn’t save her…
You sedated her soul…
And now you wonder why I am fucking feral…

[Verse 1]
White walls, cold hands, god-complex smiles
Paper promises stacked in fucking files
You called it “help,” you called it “care”
But you left her dying on a prayer
A needle kissed her paper skin
Another dose of silent fucking sin
You played god behind that desk
Now she’s nothing but a fucking text
You said “protocol”
You said “we tried”
But I saw the truth
In her vacant eyes
You drained her fire, you dimmed her voice
You turned her life into a fucked-up choice

[Pre-Chorus]
And I was screaming
But you didn’t hear
Now the only thing left
Is rage and tears

[Chorus]
You decided to doctor her and take her from me
Now the whole damn world’s my enemy
She wasn’t just another chart to sign
She was the only fucking light that was mine
You decided to silence her breath
And call it “care” instead of death
So now I carry this violent grief
A loaded heart with no relief

[Verse 2]
I'm staring at her ghost every night
She doesn’t fade with the morning light
Her laughter echoes in broken walls
Her name still bleeds when my memory calls
You overdosed her with indifference
Disguised as “clinical assistance”
And I was left to pick apart
The shattered pieces of her heart
You write reports and sleep just fine
While I’m trapped inside this fucked-up mind
If this is healing, then what’s the cost?
Another soul casually fucking lost?

[Pre-Chorus]
They call it “complications”
I call it a fucking lie
Now watch my sanity slowly die

[Chorus]
You decided to doctor her and take her from me
Now I’m drowning in betrayed misery
She wasn’t a number, wasn’t a file
You erased her with a fake-ass smile
You decided how her story ends
While I’m buried with the “what ifs” again
Now my love has turned to flame
And every fucking tear screams your name

[Bridge]
This isn’t a threat…
This is mourning turned feral
This is love turned violent
Inside my fucking chest
I won’t touch you…
But karma fucking will.

[Breakdown]
YOU TOOK HER
AND YOU CALLED IT CARE
YOU FUCKING BROKE HER
LEFT ME STANDING THERE
NO JUSTICE
NO ONE TO FUCKING BLAME
JUST HER NAME
BURNING IN PAIN
YOU SIGNED A FORM
SHE LOST HER BREATH
THAT ISN’T MEDICINE
THAT’S SLOW FUCKING DEATH

[Verse 3]
Her picture’s burned inside my eyes
A sacred ghost that never lies
If love could resurrect the dead
She’d be screaming in this room instead
I hope she knows I fucking tried
Hope she felt me by her side
While you played your clinical role
You were gambling with her soul

[Final Chorus]
You decided to doctor her and take her from me
So I’ll scream her name until you see
She was human, heart and bone
Not just another overdose alone
You can rinse the blood away
But her memory fucking stays
And I’ll carry her into the end
More than lover, more than friend

[Outro]
You can’t prescribe forgiveness
You can’t sedate the truth
You can’t silence a broken heart
That still fucking beats for you
She was mine…
And now she’s everywhere…
In the air…
In the dark…
In my broken fucking prayer…

You Decided to Doctor Her and Take Her From Me

Chop Yule Log!

[Verse]
My heart bleeds
My soul decays
Through shattered dreams
The pain obeys
Hope cries out
In shadows deep
The broken road
Where sorrows creep
[Prechorus]
Darkness reigns
But light survives
God will provide—our fire thrives
[Chorus]
Heart bleeds! Hope cries!
Jesus
Lift me
Hear my cries!
From the broken road
Release!
God will provide
Give me peace!
[Verse 2]
Chains of sin
They drag me low
A raging storm
Where tempests grow
Tears of blood
The rivers flow
Salvation comes
His mercy shows
[Prechorus]
In the ashes
Grace will rise
God will provide—faith never dies
[Chorus]
Heart bleeds! Hope cries!
Jesus
Lift me
Hear my cries!
From the broken road
Release!
God will provide
Give me peace!
