The Disease
You're in the pitch black darkness
But you can see what's happening
Your ears are plugged up
Yet you can hear what's going on
Someone is screaming from inside
No one is around to see
Still their eyes watch intensely
Waiting for failure so they can have their laughter
It's painful! It's painful!
Those ears wide open will never hear
They are deaf to the sound of dying
Designed to destroy any sign of life they find
They spread an incurable disease into your brain
And watch it slowly eat your sanity away
You're a walking bacterial parasite
Everyone shall treat you as such
Even when the water scorches your flesh
You'll still be unclean and infected
Keep your distance from familiar faces
The slightest touch of their hands is sickening
Beg them to stay but they'll leave
Never to hear from you again
Except the lies in the shape of your smile
Of course, in the end, you begin to crack
Pain and anger comes spilling out
Drowning the wrong faces along with you
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
It's no use, they don't want to deal with you anymore
Because you're no longer you
You are now the disease itself..
But you can see what's happening
Your ears are plugged up
Yet you can hear what's going on
Someone is screaming from inside
No one is around to see
Still their eyes watch intensely
Waiting for failure so they can have their laughter
It's painful! It's painful!
Those ears wide open will never hear
They are deaf to the sound of dying
Designed to destroy any sign of life they find
They spread an incurable disease into your brain
And watch it slowly eat your sanity away
You're a walking bacterial parasite
Everyone shall treat you as such
Even when the water scorches your flesh
You'll still be unclean and infected
Keep your distance from familiar faces
The slightest touch of their hands is sickening
Beg them to stay but they'll leave
Never to hear from you again
Except the lies in the shape of your smile
Of course, in the end, you begin to crack
Pain and anger comes spilling out
Drowning the wrong faces along with you
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
It's no use, they don't want to deal with you anymore
Because you're no longer you
You are now the disease itself..
