Verse 1 Ashes in the lungs, whispers turn to screams Poison dressed as breath, crawling through our dreams Every heartbeat drips with fire, no escape inside The cure is a ghost, and the fever won’t hide Pre-Chorus It’s not outside, it’s not divine It’s living deep where shadows climb Chorus The virus is the venom in our veins A burning flood we cannot contain Dark as night, alive, it feeds On broken souls and silent pleas The venom in our veins, we bleed… Verse 2 Static in the marrow, rust upon the bone A thousand shattered pulses, but still we die alone Every breath’s a dagger, every cough a flame This sickness is a kingdom, and we bow to its name Pre-Chorus No savior comes, no hand will rise We’re crucified in our disguise Chorus The virus is the venom in our veins A burning flood we cannot contain Dark as night, alive, it feeds On broken souls and silent pleas The venom in our veins, we bleed… Bridge (heavy breakdown) Bite the tongue, swallow the lie This plague was born to multiply Skin on fire, blackened eyes The venom screams, the body dies Final Chorus / Outro The virus is the venom in our veins A wicked fire, eternal chain It takes the light, it takes the breath And leaves us dancing close to death The venom in our veins… remains.
