Virus - Lagwagon

We colonize a better place

Unable to transform our fate

We follow whatever path grows

Directions no one knows

Given the choice for normalcy

You seem content in who you’ve come to be

They said he re-installed his plague

Said to have re-vamped that limp vein

As if it all ends formulaic

Painless escape

We share the same virus of love and hope

And it’s a fleeting beauty

You did everything you could

You were there for him through bad and good

Disappear before you follow suit

The parasites, they are still there to swallow you

Beating through an obtrude chest

Every emotive plea a stretch

No praise enough to build a life

No words to instill pride

And through your life disorder rides

I did everything I could

Mostly there for him through bad and good

I disappeared as always waiting for the born-again call

The one that signals to us all

This bender’s over again

Listen for one last faint heartbeat

Holding his hand in hopes he breathes

All of those sad years have come to this

Your head lay on his sunken chest

The thought of you at his deathbed

The latest virus in my head

Unjust, unjust

Selfless you tended to our ghost

Katherine an unconditional untiring host

You were there for him when he needed you the most

I hope someone restores your heart

I hope something restores your world
