Virulence

Most beautiful of accidents
These flowers of disease
Pestilence unfurling in uncanny poetry
Invisible obscenities most sinister in grace
Myriad faceless murderers
Haunting the human race

We're always closer than you think
We're drawing near as you breathe in
We're in the earth beneath your feet
We're waiting underneath your skin

How can you fight us when you know
That we will never die?
How can you kill something
That isn't even really alive?

Invasion of the parasite
This vampire without wings
This leech will drink your lifeblood
'til it makes both of you sick
The program is corrupted
Distorted and grotesque
Embodiments of chaos will
Pursue you unto death

We're always closer than you think
We're drawing near as you breathe in
We're in the earth beneath your feet
We're waiting underneath your skin

How can you fight us when you know
That we will never die?
How can you kill something
That isn't even really alive?

Virulence

We keep coming
