Babesia

This song is dedicated to those who have experienced the misery of babesia. It is a reminder that we are not in the driver's seat of life—but that the wheel of life can be slowly, painfully reclaimed. There is life after this misery. This song was created with the help of DEEPSEEK and SUNO. Lyrics: Babesia Verse 1 The fever climbs… a spike behind my eyes, Teeth dance a war drum, bones turn to ice. I feel the critters begin to dance My mind helpless to their advance The sheets are tangled, the room’s a blur, My blood a battlefield—no cure, no cure. Chorus I wake to drenched sweats, drowning in my skin, Severe depressive thoughts—they’ve clawed their way in. Will this misery ever end? God, I can’t pretend… Will I ever experience living again? Or is this the end… the end. Verse 2 My mother’s voice sounds like a distant radio. The room is small but the dark is all I know. No strength to lift a glass, no will to curse the ache. Just the cold clock ticking… for mercy’s sake. My cat is on the chair, keeping watch over me Her eyes seeing my soul, pleading daily for me Chorus Another night of drenched sweats—I’m swimming in my sin, Severe depressive thoughts—they won’t let me begin. Will this misery ever end? Tear a hole and let me out… Will I ever experience living again? What’s that even about? I’ve forgotten how. Bridge I used to run in the rain… swim in the spring. Now I bargain with the parasite just to feel anything. Final Chorus Drenched sweats… …still here. Severe depressive thoughts… (pause) …my only mirror. Keep the light from me, draw the curtains. Dim the world, let me sleep. Will this misery ever end? …I don’t ask anymore. Will I ever experience living again? … I was living before. Drenched sweats… …still here. Severe depressive thoughts… …my only mirror. Will this misery ever end? …I don’t ask anymore. Keep the light from me, draw the curtains. Dim the world, let me sleep. Will I ever experience living again? … I was living before.
