Afflicted Songtext
von Hollow Front

This feverish feeling
Long-lasting and fleeting
I yearn for the day
A breath can fill my lungs again
Then take me away
(I taste the poison everyday)

So take me away
From everything that′s kept me sick
Holding onto this pain
Will only bring me misery

I'll never be the last one standing
A fact of life and now I must face it
This sickness inside
Won′t let me hide, God knows I've tried
Discarded, unwanted, a product of the forgotten
I hope someday I'll find the strength to feel alive


Take me away from all of my suffering
Please bury me with all of my misery
Until I feel the rain
And it helps me wash this pain away
I taste the poison everyday
Everyday

Even though these moments are fleeting
I just know I don′t want you to save me
This fever is what keeps my heart beating
And I doubt I′ll ever even save myself

I'll never be the last one standing
A fact of life and now I must face it
This darkness inside
Has never been a friend of mine
Discarded, unwanted, a product of the forgotten
I hope someday I′ll find the strength to feel alive

Take me away from all of my suffering
Please bury me with all of my misery
Until I feel the rain
And it helps me wash this pain away
I taste the poison everyday

Even though these moments are fleeting
I just know I don't want you to save me
This fever is what keeps my heart beating
And I doubt I′ll ever even save myself


I taste the poison everyday
Take me away
Take me away, take me away
Please bury me
Bury me, won't you bury me?
Until I feel the rain
And it helps me wash this pain away
I taste the poison everyday
Everyday
