I'm pretty sure this is about a religious man falling for somebody who his religion says is 'diseased' - maybe a gay man (with the obvious AIDS reference) or just not accepted.
These are the correct lyrics, BTW:
And the lions ate the christians and the
Christians burned the witches
And even I am out of explanations
But maybe that doesn't matter anymore
'Cause maybe you can read my thoughts
I'm going to school, going to work
Doing the dishes, knife and fork
All of that, all in all, hand in hand
Spring and fall -
I believe I could get through it
I could even get into it
But only you could make me do it
And if there is disease in you
I want to have that disease too
’Cause I want everything that is inside you
And if there is disease in you
I want to have that disease too
’Cause if you’d die
Then I should die beside you
I began to read your profile
You are independent, mobile
Well I know just as little 'bout perfection
But we’re running in the same direction
So maybe that doesn’t matter anyhow
Belly aches, hair falls off
Skin gets covered with liver spots
Blood in the mouth and a racking cough
Heads get filled with feverish thoughts
I believe I could get through it
I could even get into it
But only you could make me do it
And if there is disease in you
I want to have that disease too
’Cause I want everything that is inside you
And if there is disease in you
I want to have that disease too
’Cause if you’d die
Then I should die beside you
And if there is disease in you
Fall asleep and I will wake beside you
And if there is disease in you
I want to have that disease too
’Cause I want everything that is inside you
Inside you
Inside you
