The Hypochondriac Lyrics

Lately

I've found myself terrified

I am hardly eating, some illness is defeating me

And I can't tell you anything

Lest I begin to stutter, and you'll begin to understand

There's something wrong with me

My symptoms can't be found in any book

Oh, believe me, I've looked!

Everything just feels so vague

I don't think we should rule out the plague

Oh no,

Heaven help me

And you know

Each time I look at you

My memories start fading

How early can such symptoms start?

And should my pulse increase

It must be an ailment of the heart

Tearing me apart

Does lead poisoning start this way?

Or maybe hepatitis A?

Or both?

Heaven help me

Am I thinking too much?

Maybe I'm just out of touch

But I need answers

I need them now

'Cause maybe

I'm not dying after all

My blood tests came back normal

There's something paranormal here

I'm struck by a greater fear

That my whole patients profile is a

Product of the way you smile

'Cause if I'm just in love

I know that they will never find the cure

I'll just have to endure

Live all my life in pain

Succumb to the years of strain

Oh lord

Heaven help me
