Lyrics

Diseased

[Verse 1]

Leave your mark under my skin

Oh my, how strong you are

Then feast your eyes on my disdain

And hope this one won't scar

[Pre-Chorus]

I will never belong to you, again

I will never belong to you

[Verse 2]

Push if you still need my pain

Cause I will never tell

And scream if you still hate my name

Cause I'll be where I fell

[Bridge]

Come sit close to me

(Let me feel your breath)

Come sit close to me

(Hands around my neck)

Come sit close to me

(Let me feel your breath)

Come sit close to me

Close to me

[Pre-Chorus]

I will never belong to you, again

I will never belong to you

[Chorus]

If I decide that I am alive

Bob Marlette

Then I'm diseased and ungrateful

If I confide that I am a liar

Then I'm diseased and ungrateful

[Breakdown]

Push it in

Till it breaks

If it bleeds

I'll be okay

[Chorus]

If I decide that I am alive

Then I'm diseased and ungrateful

If I confide that I am a liar

Then I'm diseased and ungrateful

If I decide that I am alive

Then I'm diseased and ungrateful

If I confide that I am a liar

Then I'm diseased and ungrateful

[Outro]

Come sit close to me

Come sit close to me

Come sit close to me

Come sit close to me
