The Plague of Our Age

You know you're welcome no more
We thought we knew you but all trust is gone
Deceit once like an ember glowed
But now it burns and rages like the sun

We all know your currency's stained
With the sweat of the young and bold
And it's clear that you have no shame
One by one you will consume them whole

This is the sickness of our age
It will dress you up, and strip you bare
It will chew you up, and spit you out
And you will surrender without a care

Yersinia pestis lady
Rapacious eyes suck my breath away
Irresistible embrace
Kiss of death, hold me in your sway

This is the sickness of our age
It will dress you up, and strip you bare
It will chew you up, and spit you out
And you will surrender without a care

Yersinia pestis lady
Rats and fleas will pave your way
Your bubonic gaze takes my breath away
Bitch-seductress, we will not obey.
