I would image the sickness he is describing is depression. That always can tear a family. It seems to always spread to. Although, this is highly not the case. I think this song is very poetic.
i love this band, this song especially, but i don't really know what hes singing about. i can generally get some ideas from it but its still pretty ambiguous. explanations?
@defygravity221 This is what I gather from it. A man notices a "sickness" slowly tearing apart someone he cares about. This sickness he then notices to be feeding off of of his friends and family and he wants to destroy it you could say. Jordan doesn't describe what the sickness is, but probably not a literal sickness like a cold. He portrays the sickness as a physical being that sucks the life out of the people he cares. He then talks about physically tearing apart the sickness until it could-
@defygravity221 (cont) no longer harm the people he loved. He wants to refashion the sickness into a throne for "hope to sit", so he breaks its bones and with a mortar he made from its blood and his spit. He's trying to take everything it has done to him and his family and turn the fear or hurt into a hope. In the next latter part of the song he sings about keeping his family and friends close to him. that's just how I interpret the song, and I think its pure poetry
@Username1361 it is poetry.. its so beautiful.. but i think that the sickness also could be a psychological sickness of some-sort, like addictions,and etc..
@defygravity221 i think i read somewhere the entire album is about a king whos daughter wants to marry a peasant, and the king doesnt like that so one day while the peasant was on a boat in a river he has the river flooded and when its all over he finds out he killed his daughter along with the man.
@tummthps I think I wrote it in the description, but Youtube doesn't accept videos over 10 minutes unless its a special kind. Since this song is 12 minutes long I decided to split it up and I tried to pick the most appropriate spot and that seemed to be at 4 and a half minutes in.
@edward1432 Most of this is him half screaming half talking, not singing. He really doesn't "sing" much. He talks with emotion and screams. They are post-hardcore.
I think the sickness is apathy to love after being hurt in a relationship. Who wouldn't just give up? La Dispute wouldn't. Hopeful lovers FTW

So much emotion invested into everything. He makes it sound as if this is all he has. This is music

@faeyrr It definitely could be. I for sure wouldn't limit it to a physical sickness that he's talking about
