Disease And Desire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Today I awoke
With a scream in my throat
The reminders of you
On the sheets
The print of a torso
Is this far as I know
That feverish hello
Another night of too much sleep
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Desire
Some wasting complaint
That was passed on by love
Gods little avenger
Smiles down from above
And I'd rather eat bugs
Than succumb to your love
And a kiss on the mouth
Is a mouth in the mud
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Desire
Watch this lowlife
Just look at you
Pouring out of your body
Like sweat they say
Reality breeds contempt
Contempt
Contempt
Contempt
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Desire
No heaven up there
Oh nothing so nice
Just the puff in my mouth
Paralysed, paradise
And I'd rather draw blood
Than succumb to your love
And I'd rather give it all up
Than fall for your love
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Desire
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Desire
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Desire
Oh disease and desire
Oh no way
We'll meet again
No way we'll meet again
No way
We'll meet again
No way
Oh disease and desire
