parasite Lyrics by Emma Mowery
You latched on and never let go
But I kept you around
I’m too scared to be alone
And you were the answer I found
But days turned to weeks
And then you bled me dry
Keeping you alive is killing me
But I’m glad you’re doing fine
Parasite
If I leave I’m scared I’m risking
Both our lives
I don’t want to be the one
To make you cry
When I’ve been the shoulder for you
Every time
Parasite
I became your therapist
You became my muse
I don’t know how I’m bearing this
The one thing I can’t lose
But weeks turned to months
And I still can’t get away
Thought I’d let you hurt me once
But now you’re here to stay
Parasite
If I leave I’m scared I’m risking
Both our lives
I don’t want to be the one
To make you cry
When I’ve been the shoulder for you
Every time
Parasite
Take my heart if you want it
Take my soul
It’s all yours now you got it
Just let me go
Take my time if you want it
My peace of mind
It’s all yours now you got it
Just say goodbye
Parasite
If I leave I’m scared I’m risking
Both our lives
I don’t want to be the one
To make you cry
When I’ve been the shoulder for you
Every time
Parasite
Thought you’d bring me peace
But now I’m up at night
Staring at my ceiling
Asking myself why
I let you make me
Feel way too weak to fight
Parasite
