This song is about vocalist David Draiman’s battle with depression. He described the depression as something that feels like it’s “eating away inside you”.
During the touring cycle for Indestructible his wife left him, he got stabbed in the back by his best friend and his beloved dog had to be put...
[Verse 1]
In the back of my mind, I can
Barely even remember when
There was nothing left to hide and
She has found a way inside, then
I was forced to walk alone
Living in an empty home
All I wanted was to hide and
Try to numb the ache inside
And I'm still afraid of the light
And a thousand voices share their laughter at my demise
[Chorus]
Now if I am to survive
The infection must die
Murder the beast that's been eating me alive
The infection must die
[Verse 2]
Nothing left but a broken man
Terrified of everything
Nothing left of his foolish pride, his
Fond memories slowly die, then
As he wakes again alone
Still a prisoner in his home
Ready to allow the dark to
Penetrate his broken heart
And he's still afraid of the light
And a thousand voices share their laughter at his demise
[Chorus]
Now if I am to survive
The infection must die
Murder the beast that's been eating me alive
The infection must die
[Bridge]
Kill the motherfucker
[Chorus]
Now if I am to survive, now I must survive
The infection must die
Murder the beast, murder, that's been eating me alive
The infection must die
[Outro]
This is where I draw the line, now I draw the line
This infection must die, this infection must die
Give me release from this demon of mine, demon of mine
The infection must die
The infection must die
