The Host

Lyrics

(Sister, please...this way...do you love me?) Excuse me somebody's in here Hello? What happened next is a mystery to me [The R.O.C.] So sadistic, she really is the business Behavioural issues from her childhood can't fix it I might just risk this very life of mine Impressionistic of womanly losing Why's my mind so blind? Sever all my friendly ties as we ride the night the night sky Searching aimlessly all through the plains to be one of a kind Undermine never why, she's the might in my spine She's the light in my darkness on the other side unwind As I tell you people why, with the love that's in my eyes Could never tell her lies no she saved my life as she's mine and I'm hers So many words to describe the times she's saved the worst For all the assholes that treat me like a jerk They never understood my work But she knew from day one, kept me on the right track With the body so fun call her my honey bun Yes she's frightening to most Keep her warm like my toast Or her name is the host [Chorus] I'm ghost My love, the host I'm ghost (Do you love me?) My love, the host [Jamie Madrox] Never mind to properly understand my kind You must be tangled in the vines when it's choosing for harvest time Picked over left behind in a patch to rot and die With a crow's dropped shit from out the crushed velvet sky Chances are I gets smashed by car, driven by teens on Halloween Doing donuts in a pumpkin patch, drinking, swerving, everything Supposed that I get saved to leave the pumpkin patch unscathed To be worshiped in a circle of sulfur eleven? so pain Keep the dead folks away, I mean the ghosts to be exact With the track to flesh his scab and his soul turns black And it's back to garbage can or a compost heap To become one with the earth and then the cycle then repeats The insects grow close as they continue eat the host There must be thousands of them, still I never felt more alone I hear the laughter of the crows and a cackle from out the trees In a census up in the breeze telling me "always believe in the host!" [Chorus] I'm ghost My love, the host I'm ghost (Do you love me?) My love, the host [Monoxide Child] I shoulda never played it alone But I'm bored so I got the board and played on my own And recorded everything I read Fuck, who am I kidding? you know I ain't read shit I took it straight to the head Looking through the circle of glass and at first I've seen nothing So I begin to ask "Is there anybody in here? give me a sign Let me know I'm not alone and bloodshot to my eyes" Momma was honest with something demonic it must've summoned something alive It tried to rip through my stomach And I feel like I'm gonna vomit my ribs just broke Body in contract in looking like a bent-up spoke I can feel it in my bones so I stab a knife in it Hoping that I can kill whatever life I'm transcending What a joke, I just kinda laid there and died Controlled by something that never wanted me alive [Chorus] I'm ghost My love, the host I'm ghost My love, the host I'm ghost My love, the host I'm ghost My love, the host (Do you love me?)
