Tapeworm (Demo)

When you eat a piece of meat That wasn't cooked till it was complete You might find yourself in a sorry situation You'll begin to feel the thin Caress of a pest in your large intestine The kind that warrants anti-parasitic medication I know it's not a pleasant thought But after all these years I've got to wonder If the way I treat the people I hold onto Bears a bit too much resemblance to taenia saginata Cuz I'll love you like a tapeworm I'll make your stomach sick and eat away your motivation I'll love you like a tapeworm Eating food with you is now my full-time occupation Don't need a personality I lose sight of reality I don't do anything when you're not there Anything you want from me I'll be the doormat you stampede I'll morph to meet the shape that makes you care Yeah I'll love you like a tapeworm Whatever feeds you feeds me I know it sounds a bit grotesque The opposite of picture-esque But I just don't know how to be alone Let me be the one you need The one who makes your eardrums bleed When we spend seven hours on the phone And if a problem comes along I'll listen but I'm not that strong And if we find it's something that we don't know how to manage You're the one who'll need to have the strength to rip the bandage off Cuz I'll love you like a tapeworm I need you to exist and I'll leave cysts in all your organs I'll love you like a tapeworm I can fix it all unless it's actually important Only you can make me whole So bust out the Albendazole We'll both be better off if we're apart I'll make you lose your appetite Cuz I'm a fucking parasite But I don't want your food I want your heart Yeah I'll love you like a tapeworm Whatever feeds you feeds me
