Disease

Here's a little song I wrote...

I can't feel my feet on the cobblestones
I can't see the sky through the clouds above
She walks from the bar with a drink in hand
Contemplating words of praise handed to her
She stuffs them in her jacket pocket
Leather sits precious over flowers
And now I'm spinning around in circles
Making figure eights of questions I will never ask
I go to make a sentence but am choked by my incompetence
Her cheaply lit halo from the trees is blinding me

She's a disease
That I want fighting through my blood
She's the scar on my arms that I want no one to touch
She's the scab that I pick
She's the rash that I hide
She cuts me down to size
Swallow your pride
CUZ she's a disease
She's a disease

Chorus

F#m, E, D, C#

Bow down before her CUZ it's her Kingdom now
She tells me to run I tell her I don't know how
Accidentally making me fall at her feet
Incoherently speaking it's sickeningly sweet
My stomach will turn at the scent of her smile
The champagne decides she should stay for a while
Hours and hours swim past my eyes
The comfort of her voice masks my silent cries
She says she's got it figured out
She thinks she knows what I'm about
The flowers are beginning to crawl slowly up her knee

She's a disease
That I want running through my veins
She's the shadows I see when I'm going insane
She's the cyst that I grow
She's the pills that I take
when I'm feelin low
So far below

E, d, a, bm
Take me into your microphone
Let me hear your songs of sorrow
Dance upon a starry eve
I watch her cry I watch her leave
Drown my thoughts in lifeless daydreams
Bm e d a Bm c#

She's a disease
That I want fighting through my blood
She's the gush of the wound that I can't cover up
She's my bottle of wine
My fatal turpentine
She's Adrenaline
From jumping off cloud nine
She's the rash
She's the cut
She's the spilling of my guts
She's the cyst that I've missed
Cause this sickness persists
She's the scab
She's the scar
She's what I've waited for
But I've found a cure
A dreadful cure

[Fallen king]

This is absolutely brilliant. With the use of repetition she, she she in your bridge. to the lyrics, it tells a deep story. I love this, whoever you are I wish you luck.
