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
|
Noone 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 but 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
|
