Infected
I can think again
Now that you’re gone
You swirled ‘round like smoke
From an opium bong
You burned through my brain like a virus from mars
Cut open my heart and left a big scar

So willing, wild and wet
Such a regret
That when I touched your sweat
it poisoned me

I was infected, neglected, I did everything you expected
And you never learned to say please
Infected, rejected, and totally disrespected
But you really didn’t have to leave
You were my favorite disease

I can believe again
In style and class
You spit on my gifts
Threw my heart in the trash
You twisted my nerves always demanding the stage
Then you left me alone like a pet in a cage

You took me on a flight
It felt so right
Then coiled back to strike
Now I can’t breath

(repeat chorus)

And I still feel you in my sleep
And I smell you on my skin
like a ghost beneath my sheets
You’re in my veins I need a cure
I’m sick from love I want you more and more
(solo over chorus) (repeat chorus 2x)
