I think it's a metaphor for submitting to authority.

i think its your own individualilty which is viewed by others as being a sickness so when david sings the line get down with the sickness he is encouraging people to be themselves and not be like all the others

In David's explanation of the meaning behind the song "Down With the Sickness" he explains that "Mother Society" sees those who dare to be different and unique as sick and twisted and disturbed and tries to beat "her children" into submission (conformity) so in that song he's basically saying that if uniqueness is a sickness, everyone should be sick and fight back against that bitch.

The Sickness is defined by the songs in the album, and the album seems to define it as an obsession with the dark parts of the world that leads to insanity.

I guess The Sickness can be a lot of things. Today, it can probably be defined as swine flu.

that's what i thought
the sickness is what others see as your weirdness, people fear the unknown, the strange, the unusual. but fear is an unwanted emotion that is turned into anger and hate.
i think the parts about waking up the demon are the same thing, it's the person...waking up.

"The sickeness", is a song a bout a boy who gets abused and over time gets sick of it then soon gets very angry and "dominates" his mother for abusing him. Thats why i think it's called the sickness

I guess more the question is, "Whats the Sickness in you?" I see this as really what the songs about. We are all Disturbed Indestruct in some way. So whats your sickness? I think its just our falleness.

I think the Sickness is about fighting back the abuse and misery in your life and trying to pick yourself up.
