Virus (Singl)
There's an evil virus that's threatening mankind 
Not state of the art, a serious state of the mind 
The muggers, the backstabbers, the two faced elite 
A menace to society, a social disease 


Rape of the mind is a social disorder 
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order 


Watching beginnings of social decay 
Gloating or sneering at life's disarrey 
Eating away at your own self esteem 
Pouncing on every word that you might be saying 


Rape of the mind is a social disorder 
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order 


Superficially smiling a shake of the hand 
As soon as the back is turned treachery is planned 


Rape of the mind is a social disorder 
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order 


Watching beginnings of social decay 
Gloating or sneering...at life's disarrey 


When every good thing's laid to waste 
By all the jealuosy and hate 
By all the acid wit and rapier lies 


And every time you think you're safe 
And when you go to turn away 
You know they're sharpening all their paper knives 


All in your mind 
All in your head 
Try to relate it 


All in your mind 
All in your head 
Try to escape it 


Without a conscience they destroy 
And that's thing that they enjoy 
They're a sickness that's in all our minds 


They want to sink the ship and leave 
The way they laugh at you and me 
You know it happens all the time 


All in your mind 
All in your head 
Try to relate it 


All in your mind 
All in your head 
Try to escape it 


The rats in the cellar you know who you are... 
Or do you? 


Watching beginnings of social decay........
