Lyrics

 

This disease
I'm out of my class
This disease
I'm needle sick again
This disease
We must expect such things
This disease
Oh she finds me the girls

Tick tock tick
All gone, all gone, all gone
Tick tock tick
Whispering goodbye
Tick tock tick
Who is talking?
Tick tock tick
I don't have the choice

Here we are
Here we are

Look at me
A puppet dancing on strings
Look at me
And this is easy?
Look at me
I've got the screams
Look at me
Words failing

This disease
This disease
