Listen to Writhe by Richard Charles Stevens (Parasite Suite)

Listen to Parasite by Electric Callboy

Fuck that shit and daylight saving
I’m a motherfucking raven

Writhe again
Ride again
Writhe again
Ride again

I feel it writhe
Beneath the sheets
Know well the kind
Of heat it seeks
Serpentine
It slinks
It coils
Purging ink
To reap its spoils
Squirming
Surging
Lurching
Scourging
Urging forth
All force converging
Merging with the flesh
Meshed to attest
Each undressed breath
Insurgent

I feel it writhe again
And I delight the pain
This parasite is my divine invite to feel
Writhe again
Ride again
Writhe again
Ride again
You are my parasite
I feel you bleed through my veins

I feel it writhe again
And I delight the pain
This parasite is my divine invite to feel
Writhe again
Ride again
Writhe again
Ride again
You are my parasite
I feel you bleed through my veins

Verging on insane
The pain is less inflamed
When entertained
Untamed is the beast
Which creeps with fleet
Through labyrinthine veins
Locked within unblinking gaze
Powerless to shrink away
Know not what to think or say
And ignorance is bliss
(Writhe again)
(Ride again)

I feel it writhe again
And I delight the pain
This parasite is my divine invite to feel
Writhe again
Ride again
Writhe again
Ride again
You are my parasite
I feel you bleed through my veins

I feel it writhe again
And I delight the pain
This parasite is my divine invite to feel
Writhe again
Ride again
Writhe again
Ride again
You are my parasite
I feel you bleed through my veins

Writhe again
(Writhe again)
Writhe again
(Writhe again)
Writhe again
(Gain)
Ride again

Even in this shrinking space
I feel relieved to drink the taste
Sourness of its sweet embrace
The flowers in its kiss
My pale lips purse
To lift the curse
And peek beneath its veil
Inhale the stale air
Thus declare allegiance to prevail
Bleed it into every sinew
Feel malfeasance discontinue
Herein to congeal the tissue
Gripping blackened lung
Scale the rungs
To height of bane
Introduce the light again
All terrain
To cauterise
While saucer eyes
Delight again
Blighted air exhale
As I breathe frailty back to life again
Then wait until the dead of night
To writhe again

I feel it writhe again
And I delight the pain
This parasite is my divine invite to feel
Writhe again
Ride again
Writhe again
Ride again
You are my parasite
I feel you bleed through my veins

I feel it writhe again
And I delight the pain
This parasite is my divine invite to feel
Writhe again
Ride again
Writhe again
Ride again
You are my parasite
I feel you bleed through my veins
