The Chris Ruben Band - PARASITE Lyrics

I'm trapped inside this panicked stress and I could really, really use some time
You want something from me, I know
Destined to be paired with the illusion that I'm really even here
I'll lay still, you can eat me alive
Oh God, I really could use some fun
In fact, I know I'm not the only one
But lately I'm stuck in a rut
I've been such a stick in the mud
It's easy to forget who you are when you're living in paradise and you don't compromise
You say that I'm a parasite and I'll do anything to take from you
Every day, I'm in and out
But the truth is I'm a monster and I'll do anything I can to get a break from you
The pit of my stomach pains and that's how I know I'm still alive
Well you know I like to roll alone
I've got the means to get by on my own
But lately I'm stuck in a rut
I've been such a stick in the mud
It's easy to forget who you are when you're living in paradise and you don't compromise
I've captured the faith, now tell me what do I do
I can't advise myself, there's no way I can save you
I can't see your face, please tell me how is this true
I wasn't ever there, maybe you should open up your eyes
Keep on stepping out of line
Sooner or later you'll figure it out and you'll get it
It's easy to forget who you are when you're a parasite living in paradise and you don't compromise
