lyrics

The thing invaded our body
cutting flesh and intestines
it made us blind
it made us numb
it made us deaf
it made us cold

The thing burned our heart to ashes
It sliced through our synapses
Defenses Up! We must prevent it
from erasing our existence

This is a call
to the unpleasant, desperate measures;
a call we never thought we'd make

There's only pain
and the feel of slowly dying
cold and knowing
we sense the words "it's over"
we must devour it
the beast inside our body
solve it in acid
then give it to the waters

The thing will take us down
like a senseless virus
it will never stop and leave
we just hope to barely survive
Defenses Up! We must prevent it
from erasing our existence

This is a call
to the unpleasant, desperate measures;
a call we never thought we'd make

Defenses Up! We must prevent it
from erasing our existence

This is a call
to the unpleasant, desperate measures;
a call we never thought we'd make
