Open wide

The mouth of your civilisation

Enter from the south

The kiss of swift sweeping death



Miasma clouds the air

Drink deep of your mortal libation

As blackened boils swell

You question your pontification



The great equalizer

In a shroud of pestilence

The great silencer of man



Is this real?

Masked men walk the streets

Poking at the heaps

Of yesterday's vital sons



The great equalizer

In a shroud of pestilence

The great silencer of man



What I've lost

What I've become

A seeker in the dark

Alone



Across the continents

A plague rides

On the backs of rats

Seeking a host

Warm, sweet

Social animals

So unaware

So unaware



The great equalizer

In a shroud of pestilence

The great silencer of man
