The Good Yet Deadly Disease
love is just a strange feeling
that makes you not think straight
a strong pulse from the heart
that numbs the brain
an unusual illness
that affects your vision
and makes you go blind
a drug that makes you high
all of the time
when you're under this spell
in which we call love
you tend to do things
that you would never think of
your senses weaken
yet your sense of feel begins to strengthen
the roses are a little bit redder
the air is a little bit fresher
and the sun shines a little brighter
you tend to become deaf
towards others
who warn you about
catching this disease from another
and when you feel this thing called love
watch out for what you do
it might stay with you forever
or go away like the flu
