(verse 1) 
Dm 
  The plague of all ages! 
Contagious to touch! 
A blister on my heart! 
The hunger is endless! 
The beast is upon us! 
It's love that ends the world! 
F 
  The smell of blood! 
The taste of fear! 
The lust for something more! 
 
Dm      C        Dm Eb 
Endless darkness! 
Dm C      Dm Eb 
My plague! 
Dm      C        Dm Eb 
Endless darkness! 
Dm C      Dm Eb 
My plague!
 

(interlude 2x) Dm 

(verse 2) 
Dm 
  The fever has broken! 
The changes are coming! 
From beast to burden and back! 
Desire and pain! 
The hurt is the same! 
The beast, she beckons for more! 
F 
  The thrill of the hunt! 
The wounded burden! 
The first to fall as prey! 

(repeat Chorus) 

(bridge) 

I can feel it 
Now...I can feel it 
Ohhh, and so it begins! 
The world is ending! 
And all it takes is once! 
The wrath of the scourge! 
Disease of compassion! 
Will undo all our kind! 
A hollow tipped pill! 
The only cure! 
The beast inside the whore! 

(repeat Chorus)
