Parasite Eve
Bring Me the Horizon Lyrics

I've got a fever, don't breathe on me
I am sick and contagious, so please do not breathe on me as I do not want to infect you.

I'm a believer of nobody
I do not trust anyone or anything at this point.

Won't let me leave 'cause I've seen something
I am being held captive because I have witnessed something that I was not supposed to see.

Hope I don't sneeze, I don't
I hope I do not sneeze and further spread my illness.

Really we just need to fear something
As human beings, we tend to feel the need to fear something in order to feel alive.

Only pretending to feel something
We may pretend to feel something just to feel like we fit in or to avoid feeling isolated.

I know you're dying to run
I know you are scared and want to run away from this situation.

I wanna turn you around
I want to change your perspective and show you that there is a different way of looking at things.

Please, remain calm, the end has arrived
Despite the situation looking dire and like the end, it is important to remain calm and composed.

We cannot save you, enjoy the ride
Unfortunately, there is not much we can do to save you, so just try to enjoy what is left of the ride.

This is the moment you've been waiting for
This is the moment that you have been anticipating or preparing for, whether consciously or subconsciously.

Don't call it a warning, this is a war
Do not downplay the severity of the situation by simply viewing it as a warning. This is a full-blown war.

It's the parasite eve
The disease or negative force that is about to hit us can be compared to a parasite, a harmful entity living off its host.

Got a feeling in your stomach 'cause you know that it's coming for ya
You have a sense of impending doom in your gut because you are aware that something bad is headed your way.

Leave your flowers and grieve
Stop mourning and being sentimental, and start taking action now.

Don't forget what they told ya, ayy ayy
Remember the advice that you have been given and use it to protect yourself and others.

When we forget the infection
When we become too comfortable or complacent, we forget the severity of the infection or problem at hand.

Will we remember the lesson?
When all is said and done, will we have learned from this experience and be better prepared for the future?

If the suspense doesn't kill you
If the feeling of unease or suspense that you are experiencing does not cause harm, something else will.

Something else will, ayy ayy
Even if the suspense does not harm you, something else will, and it is important to be aware of this.

Move
Do not stay still or stagnant, but rather take action and move towards a solution or escape route.

I heard they need better signal
I have heard that they are in need of a clearer message or signal to properly communicate the urgency of the situation.

Put chip and pins in the needles
Implement more advanced technology and security measures in order to better tackle the issue at hand.

Quarantine all of those secrets
Keep hidden information or secrets contained to prevent further harm from occurring.

In that black hole you call a brain before it's too late
Store your knowledge safely in your mind before it is too late to access or use it for the greater good.

Really we just wanna scream something
We may feel the need to scream just to release our fear and anxiety.

Only pretend to believe something
We may go along with a belief or idea just to fit in, even if we do not truly believe in it.

I know you're baying for blood
I know you are feeling aggressive and want to take action in a violent manner.

You can board up your windows, you can lock up your doors, yeah
You can try to physically protect yourself, but it is not a foolproof defense against the issue at hand.

But you can't keep washing your hands of this shit anymore
You cannot keep ignoring the situation or shirking your responsibility towards it any longer.

When all the king's sources and all the king's friends
Even those in positions of power do not have all the answers or solutions for this problem.

Don't know their arses from their pathogens
They may be uninformed or ignorant about the issue at hand, despite their status or title.

When life is a prison and death is the door
When life feels like a cage or a trap, and death seems like the only escape or way out.

This ain't a warning, this is a war, war
This is not just a simple warning, but a full-blown war that we must be prepared to fight.

We cannot save you
Unfortunately, we cannot save you from the danger that is coming.
