Love is Illness

[Verse 1]

My soul, it screams for you

Can you not hear it?

My arms reach out for you

Why can't you take them?

My heart burns only for you

Can you extinguish it?

I love only to love you

Why can't you love me too?

[Verse 2]

I long only to be held and care for

Why can't it be?

Am I to die alone and bitter?

What the hell is wrong with me?

My face is blackened and my eyes are sewn shut

With fear and sorrow

I no longer wish to love anything

Just cut the heart right out of me

[Chorus]

Sometimes I choke on all the false love

That infects me

Sometimes everything is not enough

To cure the sickness inside of me

Sometimes I choke on all the false love

That infects me

Sometimes everything is not enough

To cure the sickness inside of me

[Verse 1]

My soul, it screams for you

Can you not hear it?

My arms reach out for you

Why can't you take them?

My heart burns only for you

Can you extinguish it?

I love only to love you

Why can't you love me too?

[Verse 3]

I did it all, cried black tears for you

Why can't you see?

Like a vampire biting my heart

Suck the love right out of me

Don't even care as my blood stains the floor

Cannot be cleaned

You cut me out and tore me through

Six feet under's the place for me

[Chorus]

Sometimes I choke on all the false love

That infects me

Sometimes everything is not enough

To cure the sickness inside of me

Sometimes I choke on all the false love

That infects me

Sometimes everything is not enough

To cure the sickness inside of me

[Bridge]

I feel it all as it sickens me

It feels like I'm dying inside

Because of the love I gave that can't be returned

My longing for stability is a personality flaw

[Refrain]

I trust you with respect, and you tear me down

I trust you with respect, and you tear me down

I trust you with respect and you tear me, down

I trust you with respect and you tear me, down

Love is Illness!

[Verse 1]

My soul, it screams for you

Can you not hear it?

My arms reach out for you

Why can't you take them?

My heart burns only for you

Can you extinguish it?

I love only to love you

Why can't you love me too?

[Verse 2]

I long only to be held and care for

Why can't it be?

Am I to die alone and bitter?

What the hell is wrong with me?

My face is blackened and my eyes are sewn shut

With fear and sorrow

I no longer wish to love anything

Just cut the heart right out of me

[Chorus]

Sometimes I choke on all the false love

That infects me

Sometimes everything is not enough

To cure the sickness inside of me

Sometimes I choke on all the false love

That infects me

Sometimes everything is not enough

To cure the sickness inside of me
