Apex Parasite

Burn it down to the ground Before it takes us all Burn it down It’s too late to turn back now so Waste it We’ve got to kill this thing before it kills us all And they named this thing the apex parasite There’s bodies in the basement The scent of death still haunts these hallowed enchanted falls Distorting all reality ‘Til you can’t tell the real from the insanity What the hell have they been doing here Bioweapon XT6439 Continually evolving, the very apex of a species lost to time They have created a monster beyond all comprehension Engineering the extinct to manifest a new form of bioweapon Looks like they met their end By this thing that they had designed Playing with ancient forces That they didn’t even try to understand And now that this things let loose From their own pathetic negligence We’ve got to clean up this mess If there’s any hope for a future left When all of this is dead and buried When we’ve undone all the wrong When the place is nothing but ashes We did what had to be done What we they expecting There are some things that man cannot control This is one of the ancients The shape of pestilence embodied in a native form Lock and Load Burn it down to the ground Before it takes us all Burn it down It’s too late to turn back now so Waste it We’ve got to kill this thing before it kills us all And they named this thing the apex parasite Terrified and Apoplectic They didn’t know that it was capable of sensing fear What began as incidental Quickly morphed into the reason why it’s still here Follow the destruction All the rivers here are stained with so much blood I can smell all their insides And all the skeletons it left here in the mud Driven by instinct and bloodlust The worst of this is yet to be seen That thing will just keep on killing ‘Til all of life on earth is wiped clean I can feel all the horror The ground bleeds drenched with death from everything that went down All that’s left is the ancient And by now it’ll know what we have come here to do So ready yourselves for the storm This thing will not go down easily We’ve got to clean up this mess If there’s any hope for a future left When all of this is dead and buried When we’ve undone all the wrong When the place is nothing but ashes We did what had to be done If we don’t it’ll keep on consuming Growing larger by the day And If we don’t we’ll never see our loved ones again So what do you say? Die Foul creature Die Kill this wretched thing We will be the last that it will ever see Burn this abomination For the sake of humanity’s preservation Die Foul creature Die Go back to hell where you came from
