In the back of my mind I can
Barely even remember when
There was nothing left to hide and
She had found a way inside, then
I was forced to walk alone
Living in an empty home
All I wanted was to hide and
Try to numb the ache inside
And I'm still afraid of the light
And a thousand voices share their laughter at my demise
Chorus:
Now if I am to survive
The infection must die
Murder the beast that's been eating me alive
The infection must die [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/d/disturbed/the_infection.html ]
Nothing left but a broken man
Terrified of everything
Nothing left of his foolish pride, his
Fond memories slowly die, then
As he wakes again alone
Still a prisoner in his home
Ready to allow the dark to
Penetrate his broken heart
And I'm still afraid of the light
And a thousand voices share their laughter at my demise
Chorus:
Now if I am to survive
The infection must die
Murder the beast that's been eating me alive
The infection must die
This is where I draw the line
The infection must die
Give me release from this demon of mine
The infection must die
I so relate to this song well ... As i was married for 15 years and now divorced, i done but loved, supported my family and worked very hard to make our lives very possible.
The hurt that is in me, is "the infection" and wonder now that i am older rather than younger, will i meet a new lady who can bring me the true happiness that i deserve. Or will i face demons for the rest of my life and become so resentful that "the infection" takes control and i become so numb i where girls mean nothing to me no more!
