How did I forget your face
When I can still feel your embrace
How can I still smell you
But fail to recognize these pictures in which I held you
My disease is the worst
At least that’s what people say when they remind me
Remind me of these words
While my disease will eat them kindly
And I believe it
I don’t believe in people but I believe it
You made me sick
And I love it
And I don’t care if you’re toxic
Because it only gets bad when you’re not around
The disease is at its worst when you’re not around
And I only go mad when you’re not around
The disease is at its worst when you’re not around
How can I lose control
But still keep a hold on you
I can’t recognize myself
But when I’m with you
I know exactly what to do
And people say I need help
I don’t believe in people but I believe it
You made me sick
And I love it
And I don’t care if you’re toxic
Because it only gets bad when you’re not around
The disease is at its worst when you’re not around
And I only go mad when you’re not around
The disease is at its worst when you’re not around
You’re not around
My disease is the worst
At least that’s what people say when they remind me
Remind me of these words
While my disease will eat them kindly
My vision has detached from reality it seems
My wish is to be lost alongside memories and dreams
How is it so hard to forget the present instead of the past
I fail to self-destruct even when i commit and try my best
My angel don’t worry your pretty head by being upset
Our reunion will be a memory i’ll never …
How did I forget your face
Because it only gets bad when you’re not around
The disease is at its worst when you’re not around
And I only go mad when you’re not around
The disease is at its worst when you’re not around








Powerfully penned, Drieks. Into the book it belongs! Excellent lyrics my friend, your work is so authentic and direct. I’m truly a fan, good musical choice as well. The piano added the proper element to your words. Nicely done per usual. Appreciate you.

Thank you Damian. I always love reading your thoughts on my work. Appreciate you!
I love a good piano song. This feels very intimate and un-rushed.
It has a great tempo too. There are not a lot of distractions either. Just a voice and a piano.
Just wonderful:)
Thank you so much! Your words bring warmth to my heart ❤️
Adelphina was raving about this to me earlier, so I had to check it out. And it’s really good! Not syrupy or overdone. It’s catchy and very entertaining. Awesome job with it.
Thank you for your kind words Styxian. I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed it!
Drieks, I smiled the whole way through listening to this. This was sad but catchy.
Thank you Fia! So happy to make you smile! 💕
I man…damn. This is incredibly well done!
Thank you so much Willow! ❤️
Hello poetess.
Your song is breathtakingly beautiful. My heart, just got a new crack from listening to your words – a sudden ache in a place I thought was solid, but healed by hearing your voice.
Brava.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
If only it was my own voice… Can’t take credit for that.
You’re very welcome, poetess. It was your voice, enhanced by someone else’s. You’re very talented.
❤️
