Hopeless Host

I 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

Monsters religion

Bleed me through to midnight

Peeking red

Another episode of playing pretend

Medicine

Cut the feed for one moment

Release endorphins and 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

Monsters religion

Bleed me through to midnight

Pills are contagious (pills are contagious)

Prayers for ageless sight

Monsters religion (monsters 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)

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
