You Were The Cancer

It's the sigh of a building falling down

It's the world spinning us around

It's the slip of the surgeon's knife

Darker crimes of common existence

It's a missile sleeping in the ground

It's a camera trying to photograph a sound

It's a case for the basic flaw

Ending a film in the coming attractions

It's a sound that's spinning out of control

It's a light at the edge of a black hole

Scream of an orchestra

Total collapse of an overreaction

In your blood there is a sad, sad song

Bleeding through your nervous system

It's killing you but it's bringing me along

You were the cancer in my life

You were the cancer all the time

You were the cancer

That's all you'll ever be

It's comfort in a bathtub full of ice

It's the promise of a peaceful afterlife

Or the string of a violin wound too tight

It's gasping for oxygen

It's the signal that's sent out over the air

At the speed of a thousand unheard prayers

Faith in the chemicals

A shot in the dark the size of a particle

It's blood from the neon sign

Shine a light away from your insides

Make a map of the balance

Watching life slip through your hands

They're not for shaking

They're not for praying

They're just for holding close

Everything you love that is fragile in a dream

See, you're coming down

No one knows where

See, you're coming down

Without a prayer

You were the cancer in my life

You were the cancer all the time

You were the cancer

That's all you'll ever be

Your blood is a sad, sad song

Bleeding through your nervous system

It's killing you and it's bringing me along

It's a sound that's spinning out of control

It's a light at the edge of a black hole

Scream of an orchestra

Total collapse of an overreaction

You were the cancer in my life

You were the cancer all the time

You were the cancer

That's all you'll ever be

You were the cancer in my life

You were the cancer all the time

You were the cancer

That's all you'll ever be
