Anti Venom

There is a disease running free in your veins, It's killing your sight and it's numbing your pain. I am the anti venom. Suck it out of your wound, Hurry up now, before it's sealed your tomb. I am the anti venom, Get it out of your heart I know it's dumbed you down, but you're far too smart. It's in your blood flow, It comes from your genes. They hope the seed grows The more that they feed. I am the famine, I am your pestilence-death. I am the bringer of sight From the end keeper's breath. I am the anti venom, Suck it out of your neck, Get up off your knees have some self-respect.
