The things she said I just can't escape
And I did it for her sake
I knew I would soon regret it
And even then I loved her
I can't go back to do it again
I wouldn't do so anyway
A victim of my own device
Now that she's gone away
<chorus>
For your love, I'm living with this disease
Wearing me down for too long
And I don't care
Inflicted pain for all to see

Those eyes bore through me like a blade
Obsession burns inside me
I crawl into the hell that I've made
But even there she finds me
And in my mind I will call her back
But she is never there
The pain comes on like an attack
The question is "why do I care?"
<chorus>
I have to settle for my own choice
Another way is not yet clear
I lay in shame for how I felt
I wish it would disappear
My devotion's done me in
After all I've said and done
How can one so weak grip so strong
I can't let go even if she's gone
<chorus>
Your precious disease
