Contagious

[Spoken]
And so it begins

[Verse 1]
I'm running
And I feel time's running out
There were twelve of us
We're down to seven now
I'm fearing exhaustion
The temperature was dropping down
Is anybody with me now?
All I really wanted
Was the cure

[Chorus]
Something was written, they tried to erase us
Now that they govern, here to contain us
Bodies were lifted, well past the stages
And like the virus, we're too contagious
Are we over?

[Verse 2]
Now we're fighting, there's no way that this is real
We are not actors, this is no movie reel
The dead were all rising
The federation's heresy is now the state emergency
And I want my family
Thirty seven hours now, the whole world's rearranging my
Life, heartbeat's changing
This isn't me now, this wasn't me

[Chorus]
Something was written, they tried to erase us
Now that they govern, here to contain us
Bodies were lifted, well past the stages
And like the virus, we're too contagious
Are we over?

[Spoken]
They want us to waste
Look around you
The body count's raising
Fight for what's yours
This is yours
Listen to me
Don't let them ever erase us

[Bridge]
We're not getting out, so much for getting out
Built up the walls and left us for ruined
We're not getting out, so much for getting out
Built up the walls and left us for ruined

[Pre-Chorus]
Something was written, they tried to erase us
Now that they govern, here to contain us
Bodies were lifted, well past the stages
And like the virus, we're too contagious

[Chorus]
Something was written, they tried to erase us
Now that they govern, here to contain us
Bodies were lifted, well past the stages
And like the virus, we're too contagious

[Outro]
There's no use standing, we're all falling
Out, we're over
There's no use standing, we're all falling
Out, we're overdue
(Out, we're overdue)

[Spoken]
You'll keep on standing by?
You want back your freedom? (Out, we're overdue)
White noise, take it
