The parasites are excited when you're dead
Eyes bulging ants are in your head
and all your thoughts yeah they rot
God And Satan they gamble when you're dead
beams of light one's bright the other's burning instead
and all your thoughts yeah they rot
it Was hot and time was sticking to my skin
to all the punch lines of the jokes they wont let us in on
and all your thoughts yeah they rot
Parasites will be excited when you're dead
Eyes bulging ants are in your head
and all your thoughts yeah they rot
God And Satan thay gamble when yer dead
Beams of light one srike the others Burning and dead
and all your thoughts yeah they rot
it Was hot and time was sticking to my skin
to all the punch lines of the jokes they won't let us in on
and all your thoughts yeah they rot
