The Colony

I found a treasure chest of medicine
Though the better part of me had died
I knew that I would soon be well again
And leave the colony behind
If left to me we all would walk again
But there's only so much I can do

You were better off than me
I'll be better when I leave
So let me be alone, I'm gone
But you're fine now on your own
And at least we both now know
What evil men will do to survive

I thought the drug we found was medicine
And in an instant I would find
That I would never be myself again
I healed the skin to bleed the mind
And if I could then I would start again
Trade your ailment in for mine

'Cause you're better off than me
But now all I want to be is not alone anymore, I know
But you're fine now on your own
And at least we both now know
What evil men will do to survive

I found a better way to die
You made a way to live

I found out the better way to die
You made a way to live
And I found the better way to die
You made a way to live
And I found the better way to die
You made a way to live
