Spiritual Myiasis
Iâm a tenant in my own body Iâm a parasite in this hollow shell Harvest my body Pick my bones clean Tap my vital juices Extract my energy Iâve given up â control of my own life Iâve sold away â the right to self decide The perfect machine â should have no thought A fitting cog â should not be conscious Iâve given you all But now I want it back You broke my body You dried my bones up You diluted my juices You perverted my energy

Out here in the wastelands of the outer rims the air is thick A heavy stench of rotting metals and industrial waste is wavering Licking at your skin, infecting your sight, clouding your mind This is where youâll die This is the dead world of the gnawing The Gnawing Stay out of the shadows avoid the dimming light and hold your breath Keep your head down and avoid the fumes or youâll be spotted A lumbering presence slowly gaining pace, biding its time This is where youâll find You are in the clutches of the gnawing The Gnawing Engrossed by fog, standing face to face With an untamed force of nature His features reflected in mine And in those traits I see â I see myself Where he goes â I must follow Iâll follow you What he knows â I must know I know you

First I heard it, like the muffled whispers of a thousand insect wings caressing your insides Then it grew, gaining moment umtil it howled with a seismic roar My mind gleamed, my body shivered as the echoes of my experience settled down I was drenched in light, engulfed by darkness My outlook shook as the walls came tumbling down The light came back, the smoke cleared As I found myself breathing again My body weak, my mind clear Iâve climbed back and I live once again The eternal recurrence The eternal return Thanks to niklas for sending these lyrics.
