(Can you feel that?
(Oh shit)
Ooh ah ah ah ah!
Ooh ah ah ah ah!
Drowning deep in my sea of loathing
Broken your servant I kneel
(Will you give in to me?)
It seems what's left of my human side
Is slowly changing ... in me
(Will you give in to me?)

Looking at my own reflection
When suddenly it changes
Violently it changes
Oh no, There is no turning back now
You've woken up the demon ... in me

Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up
Come on get down with the sickness
You fucker get up
Come on get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift, that has been given to me

I can see inside you, the sickness is rising
Don't try to deny what you feel
(Will you give in to me?)
It seems that all that was good has died
And is decaying in me
(Will you give in to me?)

It seems you're having some trouble
In dealing with these changes
Living with these changes
Oh no, the world is a scary place
Now that you've woken up the demon ... in me

Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up
Come on get down with the sickness
You fucker get up
Come on get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift, that has been given to me

And when I dream
And when I dream
And when I dream
And when I dream!!!!
No mommy, don't do it again
Don't do it again
I'll be a good boy
I'll be a good boy, I promise
No mommy don't hit me Oh-oohh
Why did you have to hit me like that mommy?
Don't do it! You're hurting me Oh-oohh!
Why did you have to be such a bitch?
Why don't you,
Why don't you fuck off and die?
Why can't you just fuck off and die?
Why can't you just leave here and die?
Never stick your hand in my face again bitch
FUCK YOU!!!
I don't need this shit
You stupid sadistic abusive fucking whore
Would you like to see how it feels mommy?
Here it comes, get ready to die!

Ooh ah ah ah ah!
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up
Come on get down with the sickness
You fucker get up
Come on get down with the sickness
Mad-ness has now come over me

I think this song has been the song that made Disturbed so big. Everybody who has heard of Disturbed has heard of this song, and it has many elements that make it Stand the test of time.

This Disturbed song is so awesome!

i never understood the abuse part till now. its supposed to be society (the mother) who keeps beating you down everytime you try to be an individual.

:Spiderman:


PS: Spiderman is awesome

Awesome song. The WOW version of it would be just as cool if it wasnt for the chipmunk voice.

I love the part where he just starts freaking out.

Its a very good track and very cleverly written. It was one song it took me one or two listens to like and has now become one of my favourites.

My ultimate favorite from this cd. I love the sickness. In fact I have the words tatted on my back.

Definitely one of my favorite songs.

That growl. *shudder*

Fuckin' amazing!

I love this song at their concerts

xD

hehe this song was my introduction heavy rock and cursing XD and then i found youtube and evanescence
love this song no matter what, it was the very first song i put on my mp3 player

(Will you give in to me?) - think of this everytime i introduce some innocent kid to the world behind all the preppy happy-go-lucky stuff XD apparently i corrupt people

On my cellphone i have Disturbed's Down with the Sickness as my ringtone.

me and my dad have that ringtone too

My ex made me listen to this song and I thought "shit, this song is awesome!"
That was when I sorta opened the door to Disturbed, and now I don't wanna get out XDD

I don't really like the music video, though. They took out the best part XDDD

I love that song. Especially intro(drums+can u feel that aaa shit) ITS AWESOME!

i nearly stopped listening to disturbed when i heard this song when i heard the abuse segment, (i was 5)and i still don't like it, personally. but i can get over it because disturbed would still be the greatest band in existance.

lol, i'm the opposite. i was more intrigued about Disturbed when I heard the abuse part (aside from my face going O.O)
