Lyrics

   The way it makes me feel, infection
   It's almost like a tongue on the back of my neck
   I never had a choice, connection
   I never had a chance to catch my breath
   It's eating up the space between us
   It's eating up all remaining doubt
   It's filling up the hole inside you
   It's trying to find a way to let itself out
   
   Give me something to believe in
   All these hands have got a hold of me
   Give me something to believe in
   As alive as you need me to be
   
   Always gonna go this way, there's no turning back
   Never any other way, there's no turning back
   Everything for a reason, everything for a reason
   Everything for a reason, everything for a reason
   
   Give me something to believe in
   All these hands have got a hold of me (Hold of me)
   Give me something to believe in
   As alive as you need me to be
   
   Feel, I can finally feel, I can finally feel
   I can finally feel this infection
   Feel, I can finally feel, I can finally feel
   I can finally feel this infection
   
   Feel
   I can finally feel
   Feel
   I can finally feel
   Feel
   I can finally feel
   Feel
   I can finally feel
