my loving malady,
so beautiful and disgusting
oh, my loving malady
with your long, blond locks
and overgrown fangs;
how could I love such a horror?

fractured bones and rat tails
feed me these, not lies
your hypocritical nature
drives me up walls

my loving malady
so gorgeous and grotesque
oh, my loving malady
with your soothing mask
of deceit and fabrications;
how could I love such a horror?

your breath smells of
blown candles and used matches
it sends me over the edge
yet makes my stomach flip

my loving malady
my dear sickness
I could never live without
the nightmares you bring me
or headaches you induce
