about

We scry! Saw the crud that came creeping, because it was so obvious.

lyrics

I'd rather be patient zero
than patient negative one

Well all the world's an infection
and we are merely hosts
by the acts of our perception
we gain symptoms, learn to boast,
learn to beg, learn to sing, learn to kill
learn about when to cry,
by the virtue of contagion
afflicted till we die

Despair is the sickness unto death
and love is the sickness unto life
dance is the sickness of becoming more
than you ever thought you might.

I'd rather be patient zero
than patient negative one

Come to me bacterially
come to me through the eye
there's no such thing as quarantine
when the yellow jack flies it's a lie
you can learn to receive all transmissions
you can smile and pretend you're immune
but when everything is a vector
the plague spills down from the moon

I'd rather be patient zero
than patient negative one
