Hematophagous Hunger Lyrics

Unsheathed proboscis

Boring into exposed flesh

Six needles burrowing

Probing for a vessel

Gorging full of blood

Water separates expelled

Salivating in the wound to keep the stream from clotting

Moderate not

Feast until bursting

Hematophagous Hunger

Vector of disease

Bite transmitting parasite

Presenting with cold and fever

Destructive consumption

Thinning Populations

Track the living's scent

Location of her target

Hosted to a blood feast

By giants sent retreating

Given away by carbon dioxide

As long as they're still breathing

They've no success in fleeing

Feed

Moderate not

Feast until bursting

Hematophagous Hunger

Gorging full of blood

Six needles burrowing

Salivating in the wound as sustenance keeps flowing

Destructive consumption

Ectoparasitic nuisance

Thinning populations

To yield viable youth

To yield viable youth

Vectors of disease

That mature in the liver

Enlarging the host's organs and malforming their unborn

Destructive consumption by an ectoparasitic nuisance

Thinning populations to produce viable youth
