Modern Human Ritual Lyrics

I am the liar

I am the leech

I am the liar

I am the leech

Give me something

Give me something to attach to

I am the leech

Draining the life from you

Give me something

Give me something to attach to

I am the leech

Draining the life from you

Fleshing out

The smoke and mirrors I put out

I know you have your doubts

(You have your doubts)

Content with my addictions

Every other way conflicted

Trying to escape the nothingness

And find a sense of purpose

In a life I'm doomed to lead

A life sentence I never had the chance to plead

Give me something

Give me something to attach to

I am the leech

Draining the life from you

Give me something

Give me something to attach to

I am the leech

Draining the life from you

(Draining the life from you)

False

Every word I spoke

I see you losing hope

(I see you losing hope)

A modern human ritual

Bathing myself in the oil

Of the snakes in the hole

I've lived my life taking more than I need

I am the liar, the leech

But you're no better than me

You call me the liar

You call me the leech

But you're no better than me

(But you're no better than me)

You think you're better than me 'cos you're honest?

You talk about the truth like you want it

You're pathologically fucked

You need something

You need something to attach to

You are the leech

Draining the life from me

You need something

You need something to attach to

You are the leech

Draining the life from me

Draining the life from me
