How To Destroy Angels – Parasite Lyrics 15 years ago
First the correct lyrics:

"Yes, I can feel you
Yes, I believe
Yes, you can have me
Yes, I can breathe

Parasite

Yes, now I need you
Yes, you soothe my mind
Yes, you have shown me
Yes, you stupefy

Parasite"


In my opinion it's about the need of doing something like lust or appetite(in a sexual way). This need is controlling your life, but also kind of helping you survive:

"Yes, I can feel you"
S/He feels the need (or the animal inside).
"Yes, I believe"
S/He believes that s/he makes free decision (even though they are controlled by the subconsciousness which is trying to satisfy the need)
"Yes, you can have me"
Now s/he is aware of her/his real intentions, but doesn't care because...
"Yes, I can breathe"
...s/he feels finally free again, and all the derpessing feelings are gone.

"Yes, now I need you"
S/He is becomming addicted to satisfying the need,...
"Yes, you soothe my mind"
...since it makes all the "bad" thoughts go away.
"Yes, you have shown me"
The need showed her/him what s/he is missing.
"Yes, you stupefy"
The brain doesn't "waste" it's time anymore with rational thoughts and the alter-ego is thinking in a primitive way.

The word Parasite is in my opinion used because it is something that just damages an organism and doesn't do any good. The parasite which is described feels right, because the brain doesn't deliberate anymore and is stupefied.


I don't know if it makes sense, but I can relate to it since I split up with my ex-gf, because I thought that I was in love with another girl even though I was controlled by a lower force(literally lower).
That's when I realized that a big part of my brain is primitive and then it was too late.

I'm not stating that my genitals are parasite, I do like sex, but I didn't gain anything from listenning to them instead of staying with the intelligent girl, I chose the one with the bigger sexual characteristics >.<
