Incident In A Medical Clinic

[Verse 1]
Quite unbelievably
I want someone to be sweet to me
When I am in absolutely horrible pain

[Verse 2]
Thank you for keeping this vigil, doctor
These infections are becoming quite popular
I never meant for it to turn out quite this way

[Pre-Chorus]
An antidote's been elusive
The specialist can't deduce if this isn't curable
Now a disease defines me
My fever intensifies, see, I get delusional

[Chorus]
Some survive
Some survive
Some survive because of the way that they walk
Because of the look in their eyes
(Look in their eyes)

[Verse 3]
"Almost everybody has, has snail fever"
The doctor whispered in my ear
"Some get treated, feel better, some don't
The cause is still unclear
We are unable to treat you here"

[Pre-Chorus]
Unwilling patients with treatments
They suddenly discontinue
Dangerous infections
Are sneaking into superficial wounds

[Chorus 2]
Some escape
With their lives
Some survive because of the way that they walk
Because of the look in their eyes
(Look in their eyes)

[Bridge]
Scratch an existing wound, open an old one
It’s extraordinarily hard
Succumbing bone-by bone, bone and bowel, heart-in-hand
This diseases pervades us all
It can therefore manifest anywhere, in anyone, at any moment
Dr. Bernstein, Bernstein

[Verse 4]
Quite unbelievably
I want someone to be sweet to me
When I am in absolutely horrible pain
