lyrics

Baby I want to love you
As long as you love me too
Want to give to you what I can’t give to anyone
Baby I don’t want you ever
To think about anyone else
Every time I think you do, well I feel like a failure

But oh this feeling
I hope to forget
When you love someone so much
To the point of regret

Baby I think I'm losing all of my battles with you
It's a war I don't mind losing, if it makes things easier

But oh this feeling
I hope to forget
When you love someone so much
To the point of regret

Everything now causes cancer
Even labels don’t give you the answers
I’m afraid of dying that way
I’m afraid of dying that way

So hard to think about it
and what happens after death
I’m afraid of dying that way
I’m afraid of dying that way

Baby I want you to
Be my cancer
Be with me when I become everything

But oh this feeling
I hope to forget
When you love someone so much
To the point of regret
