Lyrics

It Makes Me Sick

[Verse 1]

It makes me sick, it turns me on

I've got a problem, I know it's wrong

Pleasure and pain and glowing lights

I'm undecided and I'm conflicted all the time

[Chorus]

It makes me sick (It makes me sick)

It makes me sick (It makes me sick)

It makes me sick (It makes me sick)

It makes me sick (It makes me sick)

It turns me on (It turns me on)

It turns me on (It turns me on)

It turns me on (It turns me on)

It turns me on

[Verse 2]

I don't wanna think about it

Money's out of my control

What's it gonna take for me to dig myself out of this hole?

I don't wanna look away but I don't wanna see

It's a [?] curiosity

[Chorus]

It makes me sick (It makes me sick)

It makes me sick (It makes me sick)

It makes me sick (It makes me sick)

It makes me sick (It makes me sick)

It turns me on (It turns me on)

It turns me on (It turns me on)

It turns me on (It turns me on)

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
