A Cure for Wellness

Cold and deceived, letting love take its lead
I stood in awe as I watched my hell retreat
I'm 25 and living my life
Crushing the walls of defeat right before my eyes
Crushing defeat right before my eyes

I will not yield at the hands of my guilt
I'd rather break down the walls that entropy built
I am no coward, no fear among these bones
This body is concrete
This will is of stone

I'm not sick, I'm just sick and tired of giving in
You're a conformist, a sheep to follow suit
We're not sick, we're just sick and tired of giving in
I'd sever my legs before I'd follow you

We watched you cower at the sign of smoke
Regret so potent and it makes you choke
You're the reason we live this way
Hearts full of hope
Eyes full of rage

I'm giving up on giving in
I'm backing out, not backing down
I know you want me to submit

I know you want me to submit

Consciousness has become a plague
Spreading corruption to all in its wake
Your pathogenic words tearing through the air
Killing us slowly
I'm not sick

We watched you cower at the sign of smoke
Regret so potent and it makes you choke
You're the reason we live this way
Hearts full of hope
Eyes full of rage
I'm giving up on giving in
I'm backing out, not backing down

You want me to admit my life's a lie
With every word you spit full of genocide
If hate's the cure and it makes me well
Then open your mouth and inject yourself

When is the last time you felt well?
When is the last time you felt well?
When is the last time you felt well?
When is the last time you felt well?

I know you want me to submit

I know you want me to submit
But I refuse to give in
You've become the contagion
