Take This Sickness

Take this sickness from me
Take this sickness from me

Be still, be still, this beating heart
Deafened by the silence
Blinded by the dark
Mouth dry, gasping to speak
No words to hear, truth yet unleashed
So desolate the view from here

Take this sickness from me
Take this sickness from me

Raging machines with open embrace
Coaxing me to an asphalt grave
Start to hum, begin to sing
In chorus with the jeering machines

Devour, Destroy, Devour, Destroy, Devour

Take this sickness from me
Take this sickness from me
Take this sickness from me

Outstretched ready for flight
Alone like messiah I stand
Crucified
I wish I could learn to wait
It's so hard to do
When you become what you hate

Devour, Destroy, Savour the Hate
Screaming below, your passion awaits
