Almost to the point 

Where in the past I've given up 

But this time something keeps 

On telling me I've got to go on 

So now I will try to get the 

Lead out of my blood and lose 

The paralyzing lies 

That shower from above 



I must strengthen my 

Constitution 

I must gather my 

Resolve 

I've got to muster every 

Ounce of my resistance 



Self inflicted doom 

Has left me open and exposed 

To every sickness every fallacy 

That's going around 

I will not succumb to the belief 

That others hold that there is 

No defense against infection 

As I've been told 



We're tolerant to the wrongs 

Dealt out with regularity 

Our toxic level is drawn 

From sheer lack of humanity
