lyrics

Traveling and I find a gem that ive never seen before so now it's mine

Through the darkest water
A gold mine separates
A place of mystery
A place for all to be

Few have ever been here
Bubbles and slime arise
A way of welcome
To this massive goo-filled sphere
There seems to be a way in
School of fish now carry
My body to the opening
The dripping cavern

Inside--the massive globe's alive
Uncertain of my next move

Inside--possible suicide
What if this is a plan devised?

Inside--the massive globe's alive
Uncertain of my next move

Inside--possible germicide
Creation of demonic goo

The anomalous temptation inside of me
To this crystalline cathedral
An innate affinity
Something draws me forth
Can't put my fin on it

Should I fight tooth and claw for this?
The blood boils inside of me
Heart pulsating uncontrollably
An innate affinity
Something draws me forth
I have to go for it

I am the serpent that controls and alleviates you
I slither around the peace you think you live in
I am the one you should fear
I am the one
Soon it will become clear
Once you become chum

Millions of others that resemble me
Appear from all directions
A race to reach and dominate
This beauty of a blob o' goo

But first I must destroy all the others
(one by one)
Sisters and the brothers
(All the same)
Snap in half the bodies
(Razor blade)
Teeth that are strong enough to slice through all in my path

I am the serpent that controls and alleviates you
I slither around the peace you think you live in
I am the one you should fear
I am the one
Soon it will become clear
Once you become chum

Procreation of organisms squirming
for a shot to fertilize the seed
Squishy slimy skeet spreads across your sheets
Bloody mixture thats never been thicker

Should I fight tooth and claw for this?
The blood boils inside of me
Heart pulsating uncontrollably
An innate affinity
Something draws me forth
I have to go for it

I have conquered all, and now it's time for the prize
Oh, sweet gelatinous goo
How I’ve always wanted you
Time to slither in
I am the seed
I am your greatest nightmare
I am the one to make you all plead

Inside--the massive globe's alive
Now certain of my next move

Inside--the beast will come alive
The seed that will reign supreme

Inside--the massive globe's alive
Now certain of my next move

Inside--the beast will come alive
The seed that will reign supreme
