Your touch is trouble
  it lingers on my skin
Long after you're gone
  it starts to sink in
Oh, what kind of trouble
Did you bring to me?
I swear, you'll be the death of me

Your kiss is cancer
  and it's spreading to the back of my mind
And I think it's taking over
  it's eating me alive
My memory's in remission
Can't you see
I swear, you'll be the death of me

Take me away
  I'm not safe with you
I'll make a martyr of myself
  before I let this continue
another day
  my condition won't improve
I'll medicate myself
  with self inflicted wounds
but there's no use
  no there's nothing I can do
It's just a matter of time
for this heart of mine
  and it's all because of you

Your love is lethal
  and I don't think that I can survive
I'm still holding on to you
  it's barely keeping me alive
You'll have to decide, what's it gonna be?
No matter what you do,
  It'll be the death of me
