The Disease Lyrics

Please take me back, one more time

Oh back to when, I thought everything was fine

I can still remember

When I was just a child

The world was full of colour

When the sun began to smile

And the sparrows sang their ballads

As we searched amongst the trees

Now we've all gotten so much older

And life feels like disease

Why did I grow up if I'm told to hold on youth

Almost thirty have passed that I was a living proof

Thirteen years of school I took just to slowly turn aloof

Disappear from everyone like Copperfield, be gone like poof

I never wanted everyone to demonstrate their hate

Living off aggression, while I sit and ask if it's too late

Flip a tree to turn a leaf, while soapy water cleans the slate

Bend over for the system, shoulda stayed home to masturbate

Please take me back, one more time

Oh back to when, I thought everything was fine

I can still remember

When I was just a child

The world was full of colour

When the sun began to smile

And the sparrows sang their ballads

As we searched amongst the trees

Now we've all gotten so much older

And life feels like disease

It felt like yesterday I was starting fourth grade

Now I'm barely getting by feels like I being underpaid

I be struggling in life pretending everything's okay

But secretly inside I'm running out of things to say

I've been going harder I've been putting negatives aside

Trying to stop myself from going under with the things I've tried

I wanna be a kid again, but youth inside has died

I keep on promising I'll make it, but it's looking like I lied

Please take me back, one more time

Oh back to when, I thought everything was fine

I can still remember

When I was just a child

The world was full of colour

When the sun began to smile

And the sparrows sang their ballads

As we searched amongst the trees

Now we've all gotten so much older

And life feels like disease
