Take this sickness from me   Take this sickness from me      Be still, be still, this beating heart   Deafened by the silence   Blinded by the dark   Mouth dry, gasping to speak   No words to hear, truth yet unleashed   So desolate the view from here      Take this sickness from me   Take this sickness from me      Raging machines with open embrace   Coaxing me to an asphalt grave   Start to hum, begin to sing   In chorus with the jeering machines      Devour, Destroy, Devour, Destroy, Devour      Take this sickness from me   Take this sickness from me   Take this sickness from me      Outstretched ready for flight   Alone like messiah I stand   Crucified    I wish I could learn to wait   It's so hard to do    When you become what you hate      Devour, Destroy, Savour the Hate   Screaming below, your passion awaits
