The Virus Lyrics

Surrounded by shadows and broken phrases
The voices in my head tell me to let the hate in
Is it fear in my mind or am I sedated? (Sedated)
'Cause the voices in my head keep screaming "Let the hate in"
I'm living in a dark place
Virus
I'm suffering
I'm living in a dark place

Picking up the pieces, I don't know where to start
I'm positive that getting better isn't in my heart
The reflection I see doesn't look like me
And I know that I'll never be free
Black eyes and bloody noses
The one thing that I've never known is
How can you live with yourself?
Pretending to be somebody else

Surrounded by shadows and broken phrases
The voices in my head tell me to let the hate in
Is it fear in my mind or am I sedated? (Sedated)
'Cause the voices in my head keep screaming "Let the hate in"
I'm living in a dark place

Memories decay and rot
Like a sickness poisoning my every thought
Mangled and twisted
A nightmarish being
Lurking in darkness in the corners of my brain
Promising in death I will never feel pain
Fragments of toxic words are coursing through my veins
I feel no pain

Burning in my head
Horrors you can't comprehend
I'll peel the flesh off my bones
Just to feel its release
I was born for violence
I, baptized in blood
Skies go dark, the world is silent
No cure for what's to come

The virus, I am
Infected, the world will see hell
