Screaming her name but I'm feeling no emotion,
Playing the games we're just going through the motions,
Lets get this over with so I can get some sleep,
Get some sleep so I can dream of you.
Screaming her name but in no sign of affection,
Three cheers for empty words and here's to misdirection,
Lets get this over with so I can find my feet
Find my feet 'cause this is where I wanna be.
Your secret's safe with me,
Don't hesitate just let it go,
He'll never know,
We share a love so violently,
Contageous that her face has been replaced,
And I'm not sure there is a cure.
Screaming her name but I'm feeling no emotion,
Playing the games we're just going through the motions,
Lets get this over with so I can find my feet
Find my feet 'cause this is where I wanna be.
Your secret's safe with me,
Don't hesitate just let it go,
He'll never know,
We share a love so violently,
Contageous that her face has been replaced,
And I'm not sure there is a cure,
I'm not sure there is a cure for this,
I wanna find a cure for this.
So please don't sugarcoat your words
'Cause you and I both know it hurts
To hear 'fuck off, it's over' in a nicer way,
You're my lover undercover,
Undiscovered like no other,
Lets ignore reality and turn away,
Turn away.
Your secret's safe with me,
Don't hesitate just let it go,
He'll never know,
We share a love so violently,
Contageous that her face has been replaced,
Your secret's safe with me,
Don't hesitate just let it go,
He'll never know,
We share a love so violently,
Contageous that her face has been replaced,
And I'm not sure there is a cure.
