Help me get rid of this disease
I don’t want to keep this a secret
I don’t want to keep from breathing
Help me cure the disease of a broken heart

Doctor come quick!
Can’t you hear me screaming?
Somebody help me
My heart is broken!
Get me an IV, a blood transfusion
I can’t take it, put me in surgery
Anything to help me rid the suffering
Remove this broken heart
So I can’t feel anything.

I sit here in this waiting room
Watching bodies shiver and hands shake
Hear the kids crying
And the tears glistening on their face
And the pain’s getting worse
Intensifying to full
And death’s calling my name
With his hypnotic pull
And he’s luring me in with visions of you

And the pain is acting up again
And it’s hurts, and I’m screaming
And everyone’s staring but nobody’s moving
And my lips are shaking and forcing out the words:

Help me get rid of this disease
I don’t want to keep this a secret
I don’t want to keep from breathing
Help me cure the disease of a broken heart
