Disease
Tapping The Urge Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You made somebody's heart break
But now I have to let you go
I have to let you go
You left a stain
On every one of my good days
But I am stronger than you know
No one's ever turned you over
No one's tried
To ever let you down,
Beautiful girl
Bless your heart
I got a disease
Deep inside me
Makes me feel uneasy baby
I can't live without you
Tell me what I am supposed to do about it
Keep your distance from it
Don't pay no attention to me
I got a disease
Feels like you're making a mess
You're hell on wheels in a black dress
You drove me to the fire
And left me there to burn
Every little thing you do is tragic
All my life, oh was magic
Beautiful girl
I can't breathe
I got a disease
Deep inside me
Makes me feel uneasy baby
I can't live without you
Tell me what I am supposed to do about it
Keep your distance from it
Don't pay no attention to me
I got a disease
I think that I'm sick
But leave me be while my world is coming down on me
You taste like honey, honey
Tell me can I be your honey
Be, be strong
Keep telling myself it that won't take long till
I'm free of my disease
Yeah well free of my disease
Free of my disease
I got a disease
Deep inside me
Makes me feel uneasy baby
I can't live without you
Tell me what I am supposed to do about it
Keep your distance from it
Don't pay no attention to me
I got a disease
I think that I'm sick
But leave me be while my world is coming down on me
You taste like honey, honey
Tell me can I be your honey
Be, be strong
Keep telling myself it that won't take long till
I'm free of my disease
Yeah well free of my disease
Free of my disease
The song 'Disease' by Tapping The Urge is a story of a person who is struggling to let go of a toxic relationship. The singer acknowledges that their partner has caused them pain, leaving a stain on every good day. Yet, despite this, they find it hard to move on as they feel that they have a disease deep inside of them that makes them feel uneasy without their partner. The lyrics speak to the emotional turmoil that comes with trying to break away from a situation that is unhealthy, even though it is the right thing to do.
The singer also reflects on the fact that their partner has never been let down before, which adds to their feelings of guilt and confusion. They describe their partner as a 'beautiful girl,' recognizing that there are positive qualities to their partner, but ultimately acknowledging that they are not good for them. The song speaks to the universal experience of heartbreak and the difficulties that come with trying to move on and let go of someone that was once an important part of your life.
