Parasite
Eternal Hunger: The Parasitic Quest for More
Lyrics
To sit and silent suffer
To endure suffering in silence
Virtue the doctrine
Adhering to virtue as a guiding principle
Yet tides of desperation boil up within
Despite the appearance of virtue, inner desperation intensifies
The water's rising now
The water level is rising, symbolizing challenges or crises
But still we sing
Despite challenges, there is resilience and a commitment to singing
I swear I heard the future whisper
A glimpse into the future, a foreboding message
I hope you all can swim
An ironic wish for others to survive challenges
We're all parasites consuming all
Acknowledgment of humanity's parasitic nature, consuming resources
Burn everything still want more
Despite destruction, the desire for more persists
Cut us out to the core
A metaphorical removal of essential parts, leaving emptiness
For we're all parasites nothing more
Reiteration of the parasitic nature of humanity
Although we wear down to the ground
Despite weariness, the commitment to endure
Still we pray
Persistence in prayer or hope
None knows how much we'd give to see a better day
A willingness to sacrifice for a better future
Our heart
Symbolic reference to the emotional core of humanity
Our hands
Reference to the work or actions of humanity
Our fortunes we'd give away
Willingness to give away material possessions for a cause
Let them rape the ground not hallowed now
Allowing exploitation of the Earth, no longer considered sacred
Reap what they don't pay
Consequences for those who exploit without consequences
The water's rising now
Reiteration of rising challenges, but singing continues
Yet still we sing
Repetition of the foreboding message about the future
I swear I heard the future whisper I hope you all can swim
Hope for survival despite the warned challenges
For we're all parasites consuming all
Reiteration of humanity's parasitic behavior
Burn everything still want more
Despite destruction, the insatiable desire for more persists
Cut us out to the core
Metaphorical removal of essential elements, leading to emptiness
For we're parasites nothing more
Emphasizing the parasitic nature of humanity
We're all parasites consuming all
Repetition of the acknowledgment of humanity's parasitic behavior
Burn everything still want more
Despite destruction, the insatiable desire for more persists
We're parasites consuming all
Repetition of the acknowledgment of humanity's parasitic behavior
Burn everything still want more
Despite destruction, the insatiable desire for more persists
Cut us out to the core
Metaphorical removal of essential elements, leading to emptiness
For we're all parasites and nothing more
Emphasizing the parasitic nature of humanity
Parasite
Direct reference to humanity as a parasite
All want more
A universal desire for more, contributing to parasitic behavior
Cut us out
Metaphorical removal of essential elements, leading to emptiness
Nothing more
Reiteration of the parasitic nature of humanity
