Affliction Stalks Me
(v1) affliction stalks me everyday
i have to guard my back, i need a
second to breathe, but now im suffocating
(v2) i'm wearing out, im winding down
my fuse is almost to the end i've
asked for help, but if any is coming
i really am starting to doubt
[chorus] (v3)
i've checked my sides there's no body there
now i wish i could obtain your redemption
somehow, but now i feel its too late
and i think i've drowned, this affliction
is weighing me down
(v4) no oxygen, no consciousness, no pulse
no vital signs this is what its like to
be alive carrying a burden that you
cant get rid of
[chorus]
(v4) no oxygen, no consciousness, no pulse
no vital signs this is what its like to
be alive carrying a burden that you
cant get rid of
(v5) I cant wait for the day when
affliction shows its face and
feel its cold embrace maybe then
i'll finally feel alive, tonight i'll
find the lion inside
[chorus]
