ALGOR-EAT-THEM / Yi Xi

“This is my design.” -- #cannibalism Based on the track “Davesprite” by Toby Fox! Well, this one's been a long time cooking, and after months of work and burning down the kitchen it's finally here! Actual Cannibal Yi Xi has arrived, hands on the platters, she's having a dinner and the dinner is you! This one comes from a very personal place too, so I'm baring my heart for the world to see - she would like that, I think. Special thanks to PepperedEctoplasm for the title! Lastly, this is a tribute to BUTCHER VANITY by Vane Lily, Jamie Paige and ricedeity - your work inspired me to get into vocalsynth music production and I seriously owe you one for real. Keep doing awesome stuff, you're the best o7 — Vocal: Yi Xi SynthV Music and Lyrics: Priest in Love (mostly) Art and video: Mendely (also me) — Lyrics: A brand new nobody, starved and needy Sneakin' in on a forged RSVP Lookin' for a breakout to finally be free Fill the hole inside my heart They talk about the flavours makin’ people freak out Cause raw humanity is what it's about Just eat, don't think about what goes in your mouth No doubt, it's the finest art I guess I just don’t understand a certain kind of love But if they like it raw and bloody then it’s gotta have its worth Though a nonconformist by nature is what I am This hunger's just too much for me to stand Can-can-can-can- cannibalism Rip 'em off and take it all without their permission Can-can-can-can- cannibalism Just let it go and lose yourself and all inhibitions What else can I do to get the world to listen I need to score a hit, can't afford to be missin' I gotta get the good stuff into my system 'Cause all the cool kids are doing cannibalism Can-can-can-can- cannibalism Is so, so, so, so cool Pass the Chianti, MC Lecter's gettin' Illmatic Serving up the full course for candy addicts Yeah, my moods get quite erratic and my appetite's dramatic Consume perfection, and ditch the normal food while I’m at it I think something's wrong with me, why can't I live satisfied? The world’s crazy for you, you must be doing something right Be still under my knife, let me carve out your life Watch all the meat slide right off the bone, so nice Something’s missing, something’s missing, something’s missing and I’m searching Hunting for prey? I'd rather call it networking Knives out, track you down across the sites to catch you My blood’s singing with your voice, I wanna cut and scratch you This taste of beauty, how devouring moves me so I’ll rip your ribcage open and never let you go Let me break you down to the marrow in your bones Cause clearly you have something that I don’t (Now, this is my design) Can-can-can-can- cannibalism No better metaphor for love and obsession Don’t stop ’til you pop a brain aneurysm Better, better, better off with cannibalism Oh to cut into your heart and pick your brain Maybe I’ll even finally have a taste of your fame And watch the body count go up, one, two, a million 'Cause everybody’s hungry for some cannibalism Can-can-can-can- cannibalism I’m so, so, so, so cool I guess I just might understand why I feel like I’m gonna die I gorge myself like I’ve lost my mind but I’m still so empty inside Living like a parasite is eating holes in my brain Laughing, shaking, I’m going insane Can-can-can-can- cannibalism Tell me, am I on the Franklin expedition? I’m wasting away, consumed by my ambition Addicted to fame? Resort to cannibalism I’ve taken way too much, can't recall who I've ate Can't tell them apart, I’ve lost my whole sense of taste I’ve fried my mesolimbic dopaminergic system Whichever way you spin it, it’s like cannibalism Can-can-can-can- cannibalism Even if you love me for the cannibalism I'm so much more than that, you don't know what you're missin' Can’t define myself with the algor-eat-them People I meet, they’re people, not meat Better for my health to walk to my own beat I just gotta have faith in my skills as a musician Time to go cold turkey on the “cannibalism” Can-can-can-can- cannibalism Doesn’t feel like a word anymore
