You're Sick


Let me tell you something:

I'm sick.

Because I love you.

I'm sick.

But you don't care.

I'm sick.

Yet, there is no one around to save me.

I'm sick.

I cry at night when you're gone.

I'm sick.

I wait for you to come home.

I'm sick.

So you love me,right?

I'm sick.

For no one cares about my pain and suffering.

I'm sick.

Everything I do brings me back to you.

I'm sick.

I try to find someone else to break free from you.

I'm sick.

Solitude doesn't even help me leave you.

I'm sick.

No one knows what you do to me.

I'm sick.

After a while, I get tired of chasing you.

I'm sick.

You're "love" for me isn't real.

I'm sick.

They tell me to cut you off... forever.

I'm sick.

But no one knows I'm scared.

I'm sick.

You can live without me.

I'm sick.

Life is your slave; you're in charge.

I'm sick.

Breaking the chains will be hard.

I'm sick.

I know.

I'm sick.

You know what though?

You're sick.
