Infected

I've got too much energy

To switch off my mind

But not enough

To get myself organised

My heart is heavy

My head is confused

And my aching little soul

Has started burning blue

I can't give you up

Til I've got more than enough

So infect me with your love

Nurse me into sickness

Nurse me back to health

Endow me with the gifts

Of the man made world

When desire becomes an illness

Instead of a joy

And guilt a necessity

That's gotta be destroyed

Take me by the hands

And walk me to the end of the pier

Run your fingers through my hair

And tell me what I wanna hear

Will lies become truths

In this face of fading youth?

From my scrotum to your womb

Your cradle to my tomb

I can't give you up

Til I've got more than enough

So infect me with your love

Nurse me into sickness

Nurse me back to health

Endow me with the gifts

Of the man made world

And tell me what it is

That I want in this world
