Down With the Sickness (edit 1) Songtext
von Disturbed

Can you feel that?
Oh, ah-ah-ah-ah
Oh, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Drowning deep in my sea of loathing
Broken your servant, I kneel (will you give it to me?)
It seems what′s left of my human side
Is slowly changing in me (will you give it to me?)

Looking at my own reflection
When suddenly it changes, violently it changes
Oh no, there is no turning back now
You've woken up the demon in me

Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me


Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
You mother get up, come on, get down with the sickness
You fu- get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift, that has been given to me

I can see inside you, the sickness is rising
Don′t try to deny what you feel (will you give it to me?)
It seems that all that was good has died
And is decaying in me (will you give it to me?)

It seems you're having some trouble
In dealing with these changes, living with these changes
Oh no, the world is a scary place
Now that you've woken up the demon in me

Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me

Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
You mother get up, come on, get down with the sickness
You fu- get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift, that has been given to me


And when I dream
And when I dream
And when I dream
And when I dream

No mommy, don′t do it again
Don′t do it again, I'll be a good boy
I′ll be a good boy, I promise
No, mommy, don't hit me, oh-ooh

Why did you have to hit me like that, mommy?
Don′t do it, you're hurting me, oh-ooh
Why did you have to be such a -?
Why don′t you, why don't you f- off and die?
Why can't you just f- off and die?
Why can′t you just leave here and die?

Never stick your hand in my face again, f- you
I don′t need this sh-, you stupid sadistic abusive fu- wh-
Would you like to see how it feels, mommy?
Here it comes, get ready to die
Oh, ah-ah-ah-ah

Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me

Get up, come on, get down with the sickness
You mother get up, come on get down with the sickness
You fu- get up, come on, get down with the sickness
Madness has now come over me
