Jamie Lockman - Cruel Disease Lyrics

Peel in gently from my sleeve
I'll resist the urgency to
To flinch, I won't bleed

Feel it get me, no one see's
She'll regret the day she met
Me, she's so hard to please

Covered eyes I count to 10
Patronized enough to spend
My time alone in need

Wrap your fingers 'round my neck
I'll submit and show respect
Here in my cruel disease

I don't want to be the monster
In your game of hide and seek
Ring the bell, run if I answer
Why the hell does everybody always seem to pick on me???

I don't want to be the villian
Lay you down, across the tracks the train's a'coming
Opened up and now I'm spilling
Dripping tainted, crimson painted

Path that follows me
Nightmarish hollow dream
No one hears you scream
In my hour of need
Pain is just a tease
Have another helping please
It's a cruel disease

Tip toe down the basement stairs
Crimson spots weren't always there
I'm sure I wiped them clean

I call out, No reply
Me without an alibi
Here in my cruel disease

I don't want to be the scapegoat
Catching fire as you pass blame
Burning fast, pour gas on rainbows
Every situation that I play in explodes in my face

I don't want to be the nightmare
In your closet, scratching on the door at night
Hiding under neith the covers
Rip me lovely, dripping bloody

Path that follows me
Nightmarish hollow dream
No one hears you scream
In my hour of need
Pain is just a tease
Have another helping please
It's a cruel disease

I'll be good, I won't bite
But if I should take you tonight
It might just be a dream

Waking up alone instead
Take a look benieth the bed
Before you decide to scream

I don't want the mask you made me
Makes me choke on my own breath
I don't ask and you don't save me
Just delete me, so completely, you don't need me loving you to death

I don't want to be your demon
Flesh unseen, I'll get you in your sleep at night
Haunting dreams, wake up screaming
Bent and jaded, spent and faded

Path that follows me
Nightmarish hollow dream
No one hears you scream
In my hour of need
Pain is just a tease
Have another helping please
It's a cruel disease
