Soilwork - Parasite Blues Lyrics






All you presence makes me sick as dog
You parasite on a dream
That was worked for so long
You dragged a good soul down
And you buried his will in the mud...stay
Away...

Now she's a savior, a lie, a forced goodbye
Manipulation of the desperate kind... so

I'll give you something
That you can't ignore
A bait to go all the way
A place where your urge gets paid
All hail the parasite blues

She's a lingering creature
She will blow your mind
But when it comes to your end
Of this infected alliance
She won't give in

Feel the love from your savior
A deceiver of trust
All that you give
Will be returned
With your feelings crushed

I'll give you something
That you can't ignore
A bait to go all the way
A place where your urge gets paid
Your conscience all washed away
He gave you a world that serves
What you've done before
Now it is here again, my dear
You just killed a friend....
All hail the parasite blues

Just when you thought
It couldn't get much worse
She raised the bar to an all-time low
You worked so hard at covering it up
But now it's taking a new shape

I'll give you something
That you can't ignore
A bait to go all the way
A place where your urge gets paid
Your conscience all washed away
He gave you a world that serves
What you've done before
Now it is here again, my dear
You just killed a friend

    I can’t help but think that the lyrics to this song are a jab at Peter Wichers’ wife.

    I am hoping to see Soilwork live soon! I keep missing this great metal band!

  6. G.... a....

    I miss the good old times, when the drumming was great, the bald dude didn`t try to sing and the melodys wheren`t just chatchy but gripping, like an average stalker sometimes still comes to me at work, i whistle it for hours. also that part 3:40 is stolen from judas Priest`s The troper

  7. A.... D....

    Bjorn's voice is still on top after all this time.

  8. W.... 8....

  15. I.... B....

    All your presence makes me sick as a dog
    You parasite on a dream

    She's a lingering creature
    She will blow your mind
    But when it comes to your end
    Of this infected alliance

    Feel the love from your savior
    A deceivement of trust
    All that you give
    Will be returned
    With your feelings crushed

    A bait to go all the way
    A place where your urge gets paid

    Solo: Andersson

    I'll give you something
    That you can't ignore

    Now it is here again. My dear
    You just killed a friend

    I.... B....

    Change 'A place where your urge gets paid' to 'A place where your lunch gets paid' :D

  16. I.... B....

    My first impression: Pretty fucking awesome to be honest.

    My final impression: Absolutely brilliant and quite honestly extremely underrated!

  17. E.... ....

    Sums up my ex.

  18. A.... ....

    Great song!!!

  19. K.... T....

    Ahahah Forgot About Dre at the end of the playlist. Love that song

  20. J.... ....

    amazingly underrated band. better then most could hope to be

  21. d.... d....

    big fucking like...........................................:)\m/

  22. K.... x....

    THIS SONG .... IS FUCKING GOOD !!!!!!

  23. M.... ....

    The lead on this track is ridiculous!!! Stupid good. So much tone and emotion. Is it Sylvain or David?

    M.... ....

    I think is David, I watched them perform this live in Denver and they had issues with Sylvain's connection from the amp to the speakers and this song wasn't lacking the lead, it's bad ass how they switch roles depending on the song.

  24. W.... ....

    The outro... <3

  25. M.... D....

    Ola !!!!

  26. l.... ....

    @ryanexsus, It is rather melodic than heavy

  27. S.... T....

    2 people don't get their lunches paid.

    S.... T....

    3 years and only 11 more people. Impressive.

  28. r.... ....

    My back fucking hurts from how heavy this is.

  29. J.... M....

    A place where your lunch gets paid!!!

    J.... M....

    I knew I wasn't the only one. hahaha xD

    J.... M....

    It's "Where your lust gets paid" but I cannot unhear lunch instead of lust lol.

    J.... M....

    Actually, both are wrong, it's
    "A place where your urge gets paid"

    J.... M....

    Goddamn it FUCK YOU, I heard this song when it first came out and now after seeing this I cannot unhear it lmao.

  30. E.... ....

    This fucking band dude, sooo much talent. The vocalist and drummer really stick out for me. Like how does he consistently get right pitch and growl and have so much range? Fucking blessed man.

    E.... ....

    Evilope Speed Strid is king!

  31. J.... S....

    Can I have my urge get paid along with my lunch? Or is it more of a buy one get one free kind of thing?

  32. P.... ....

    My lunch just got paid

  33. T.... G....

    Even though the lyrics are "a place where urge gets paid", I still here where your lunch gets paid. Awesome song. Love it.

    T.... G....

    Just came here to write the same thing, then discovered your comment :D :D a place where your lunch gets payed

    T.... G....

    Just came here to write the same thing, then saw your comment :D :D

  34. p.... ....

    This album kicks ass, and so does this song. \m/ (>_<) \m/

  35. j.... ....

    Some of their finest work

  36. C.... ....

    I keep on hearing a  place where your lunch gets paid xD

    C.... ....

    Hehe same here

  37. k.... ....

    Saw Soilwork the first time in 6 years on their concert in Aschaffenburg (germany)
    This song made me loose everything!

    Thank you for this experience!

  38. l.... ....

    that intro.....
    ...... that outro
    these guys are insane!

  39. B.... A....

    been a year blasting these album cant  get enough of it, Album that i play for years to come

  40. K.... K....

    Fucking excellent album from Soilwork!! Fuck in flames...they're all fuckin emo pussy sell outs

  41. K.... N....

    I think I love you.

  42. M.... ....

    A place where your lunch gets paid...

  43. R.... ....

    BA-DUM--CHH

  44. R.... ....

    well thats some real soilwork then ;)

  45. S.... ....

    I thought the same thing, it has a mega man-like feeling to it. And I loved it!

  46. F.... ....

    Constipation can be a bitch,maybe this helps her xD

  47. R.... F....

    Is that a moog in the in the outro? Or some weird guitar effect?

  48. P.... C....

    holy crap your right, maybe that's why this song stood out to me!

  49. z.... ....

    my friend you just killed duffman

  50. R.... ....

    I LOVE the bass dropp at 3:46 :)

  51. B.... B....

    One of my favorites from this album. Absolutely perfect.

  52. e.... ....

    lol! my mom's legs broke every time she heard this song! now she has metal legs!

  53. e.... ....

    lol, no self-respecting woman would ever mate her soul to one who displayed such public affection. But, as she, assuming, already said she nearly poops herself, you're probably in the clear.

  54. b.... ....

    the beginning sounds like the stage bgm from mega man x

  55. c.... ....

    in flames has turned into fucking garbage in the last couple of years for some reason. If you want a real good show, stay tuned for any future Dark Tranquillity or Arch Enemy concert in the area.

  56. R.... ....

    its good

  57. S.... ....

    You should probably check that out with a doctor? lol

  58. H.... C....

    This song make me nearly poop my pants every time I hear it. I'm in heaven.

  59. S.... ....

    Nop :D I love it - the build up in Speeds voice for the final chorus is cool :O

  60. P.... M....

    anyone else think that the part at 3:55 is a really weird flow?

  61. c.... l....

    Soilwork is by far the best music above all...it holds everything music should be...Just went to the Living infinite tour in Dallas and it was the best show i have been to in 8 years..right along with Inflames ...

  62. M.... ....

    That riff and voice ;)

  63. P.... N....

    dat vocals! - makes me wanna get into trouble!

  64. I.... G....

    Sorry man.. :)

  65. D.... K....

    Dat riff

  66. L.... I....

    That riff...

  67. I.... -....

    omg amazing.

  68. b.... ....

    amazing band!

  69. S.... ....

    Love this song, but damn =\ how I hate that expression.

  70. I.... G....

    EARGASM!
