Lyrics
Leave your sickness off of me
I only want to be set free
The rain will fall on your white dove
To stain the feathers of your wasted love
Your hatred towards yourself
Has spread throughout your sotted veins
Pours out like water from a tainted jug
Oozing through valleys dug into your heart
Like termites and acid it eats you up
You?ve stripped away all my pride
Now you?re left with your downward demise
Your drunken addiction will cause you to fall
Never again will I hear all your lies
Goodbye sickness goodbye, away with you all
Why can?t you love me like I want you to
I?m left with the heartache and shame that you?ve put me thru
I?m the fruit of your loins, it?s your blood in my veins
I ask for your blessing, you give me your shame
Why can?t you love me like I want you to
