Love Is Illness Lyrics

My soul it screams for you

can you not here it

my arms reach out for you

why cant you take them

my heart burns only for you

can you extinguish it

i love only to be loved by you

why cant you love me too

i long only to be held and care for

why cant 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



sometimes i choke on all the false love

that infects me

sometimes everything is not enough to cure

the sickness inside of me



i did it all cried black tears for you

why cant you see see

like a vampire biting my heart 

suck the love right out of me

dont even care as my blood stains the floor

cannot be cleaned

you cut me out and tore me through

six feet unders the place for me



i feel it all as it sickens me

it feels like im dying inside

because of the love i gave that cant be returned

my longing for instability is a personality flaw



i trust you with respect 

and you tear me down
