The Plague

Living dead
Cold heart
Cold blood
Once was alive

These gates have infected my mind
And now your words are mine
Stagger around in silence
Afraid to open my mouth

Buried alive
In the grip of this plague
Deeds of darkness in my mind
The walls and the bars
Smother me and paralyse
My body a hollow shell
Can't leave this devastating state

I am living dead shattered dreams
Without hope the truth lies buried
Zero on the dice
When the battle finally sets

You clip my wings
Sew my lips together
Fill me up with lies
Too weak to say no
I accept the leash around my neck
Like a plague that takes our lives
A knife stabbing our brains
The nightmare never ends
When I close my eyes I see the plague

Living dead
Cold heart
Cold blood
Once was alive
