Lyrics for Song: The Plague 
Lyrics for Album: Violent Silence [1998]
  
               
  1339>I've spent many a night
  Lying on my back
  Waiting for the dawn
  To pierce and crack
  And the ceiling
  Hanging from the sky
  And I envy the boy
  Who grabbed the toy
  And ran away
  And found a joy
  While I stood in the shadows
  Wondering why
 
 
  Flying towards me
  Then he laughs
  A woman's face
  The terrible taste
  Of the morning after kisses
  And goodbyes
  I could never seem to catch my footsteps
  Have desires, they fly away
  Every day I have to fight the plague
 
 
  How can I sleep in hours like this
 
 
  When anguish tracks me like a fist
  My nakedness exposed, I can't stand
  Still I...try to remember lips on lips
  Hips on hips and ice on fire
  In gloom and glow
  When did they leave the man
 
 
  In the mirror of the night I see
  A face that staring out at me
  Like a fallen star
  Burned itself out
  Like a deadly scrapes
  Across the ground
  My voice cried out
  In a gravelled sound
  No one's there to hear me
  But the plague
 
 
  Straining hard to see
  Running after me
  I keep pounding pounding on the door
  But it's all so vague
  When you meet the plague
  And I keep coming
  I keep coming back for more
