Love Is a Disease

I want to walk with the saints in their innocence
I want to ask my maker why
Love is a disease

Where should I begin, who should I address?
No one can bury the faith I had in your caress
We confronted every bruise and every song
Controlled the dread of tangled stars that were throbbing along
But I've limping, I've been helplessly stumbling
I'm gagged and maimed by the parting of your kiss
My acclaimed words and famous bandages are poisonous rags to you
Now love is a disease

And as the doors closed on the light of our love
I can't blame myself for wanting you at all costs
I missed the rubies dancing in your restless eyes
I was eating barbed wire to keep myself alive
I never cared for law or sin
I don't want to hold a grudge against the dreams you toil and spin
Whoever you'll become I'll grind your memory
With every grain of sand I'll toss it into the breeze
My acclaimed words and famous bandages are poisonous rags to you
Now love is a disease

Still our bodies were bright
Like rivers swollen up at night
If time is an ocean
It can only fail us
