It starts with a thought, And you think almost nothing of it There's poison working it way From your brain to your heart Pumping black blood Through your veins By the time you bleed, It will be too late She's not the cure, She is the strain. And you feel it in your bones It won't leave you alone And you chase the only escape From the constant pain And you love every sick second All the terror and the tension So you've got this nervous tick And you just can't control it That's her working on your last nerve She's flirting with disaster Her love like a pathogen, By the time you have any symptoms You'll have one foot in the gave She's not the cure, She is the strain. And you feel it in your bones It won't leave you alone And you chase the only escape From the constant pain And you love every sick second All the terror and the tension

The Strain
If only I could bore Into your skull Hotwire your thoughts If only I could crack Open your chest Steal your heart back If only I could tap Into your spine Turn that noodle to stone If only I could slice Open your belly Show you what guts look like If only I could tear You another hole Would you put my love there?
