Sickness

I've still not healed from you You're in my blood, my veins You've seeped in every pore of me A plague upon my brain You make me hot like fever I sweat, my body aches Lose air when I am close to you How much sickness can I take I'm infected with this passion Desire like disease It lives in every cell of me My body's under seige This carnal need is savage It's eating me alive I have to touch you, feel you Or else I cant survive There has to be an antidote A treatment, remedy To cure this lustful sickness That's taken over me I need to search, to find it And make this go away I'm so weakened by the wanting I'm temptation''s easy prey
