Need some help with lyrics

It was recorded in Reaper. The rhythm guitar is the Epi Junior through the Convolution dual amp/cab plugin with Mesa Boogie Clean and Fender Deluxe amps. The lead guitar is the Epi Swingster through the BIAS FX2 plugin with the '69 Duo Verb V2 amp with a tube screamer. The bass is the Tokai through the Convolution Amp/Cab modeler with the JTM45 amp. The drums are the MTPower Drum Kit 2 plugin. I'm loving all the tones with plugins in Reaper.
 
I have some lyrics that I haven't done anything with yet, though I meant to. I've been sitting on them for a year... almost exactly a year. I wrote them when things looked gloomy, there were natural disasters, rising tensions and talks of this new virus spreading in China. If you're interested.

I wrote song few years back about virus it called infecrion

Here it is


Infection

------------

We breathe every day

This poison created

Killing us slow

Becoming infected

There is no cure

For the virus ingested

Venom man-made

In every breath we take



Disease rules over body and life

Inverting and tearing whats inside

No slowdown till it stops the heart

No rest till dust we are ground



We are their rats

The test-bed of evil

Killing off life

So they can live free

Free from dissent

From all opposition

Lab engineered

Injected death we take



Disease rules over body and life

Inverting and tearing whats inside

No slowdown till it stops the heart

No rest till dust we are ground





Body starts fail

We feel the pain

Life drains away

Slowly but surly

Death is getting near

We will die its clear

No time for tears

Have to fight back fear



Disease rules over body and life

Inverting and tearing whats inside

No slowdown till it stops the heart

No rest till dust we are ground



Watching us die

Its their pleasure in life

Killing us all

So they can stay in control

To them we are just rats

That needs to die

Taking us out

To complete the master plan
 
I am lying in bed on Monday morning with my wife, so I can't listen, but I wrote this just now as a way to start my day. I grant you a limited revocable license to use it Kerry!!
----------------------------------

The sun cracks open
We lie in bed
Not a single soul
Pretends their dead
Thoughts of bills
And countless chores
Not a thought of what its for

CHORUS
Why do we roam
Why don't we share
Why do we yearn
But not seem to care
What it's for, What it's for

I have a plan
I have for years
I see it through
Despite the tears
I cling to victories
That I call mine
That will simply vanish in due time

Why do we roam
Why don't we share
Why do we yearn
But not seem to care
What it's for, What it's for

BRIDGE
There was a time
That it was fine
To pretend I'd age like fine wine
But days have passed
And so have those
And so it goes
And so it goes

I try to live
Each passing day
Like it's the last
That'll come my way
But hours tick
I get confused
And act like I will never lose

Why do we roam
Why don't we share
Why do we yearn
But not seem to care
What it's for, What it's for

Thanks. Don't need them for the original post but I'll see if I can fit them in a new song..

I'm still working on the song from the original post but here is where I'm at.
