Lyrics
her heart shivers in my hand, she's melting on me like cotton candy i make the faces that make you cry, i want you more when you're afraid of my disease, disease is draining me anymore you're not so "pretty please" disease, disease is draining me i want you more when you're afraid of me i will break you inside out you are mine, you are mine i will break you inside out you are mine, you are mine her hair hangs in swollen strings i'm choking on her, it feels so sickening i make the faces that make you cry i want you more when you're afraid of my disease, disease is draining me anymore you're not so pretty, please disease, disease is draining me i want you more when you're afraid of me i will break you inside out you are mine, you are mine
