Chemo Lyrics

If there's anything that I could say
to make your pain go away
If there's anything like a child
who'll turn your tears into a smile
Just a day like any other day
summer vacation time to play
Came back at 11 A from the pool
looking pale but you felt okay
Best thing is to take you into the doctor's
nothing in your life before really rocked us
Nervously we waited
when the nurse averted her eyes I knew it devastated
Now I know that there's no god
when children have to suffer so hard
You're only 5 years old with a heart of gold
and now you have an ancient soul
They say everything must happen for a reason
so what is the reason
They talk about things this heavy like religion
how was she chosen
How many animals must we kill
to make a cures that's worse than your ills
You can't erase a memory chip
when a child has the equivalent of a really bad trip
Another midnight run to the emergency room
and there's nothing fun to do
Playing donkey kong while you wait for you i.v.
With a blood count that's lower than h.i.v.
Don't know how you were dealt this tragic hand
and you can still pretend that you're magic
I know you care when other kids stare
But fuck it
we'll get a cute wig when you lose your hair
They say everything must happen for a reason
so what is the reason
They talk about things this heavy like religion
but she wasn't chosen
I know it's so unfair that this could happen
to anyone like you who so loves everybody
All you need to do is just have fun and keep on fighting
you rock
You're so much stronger than anyone I've ever seen
If it takes longer we'll do anything we need
Pick me up at the studio
we'll get a pizza to go and a video
Kick it at the park or down in my basement
time is all we have let's not waste it
And with your magic wings you can fly
to a land of gumballs and pumpkin pie
We try not to cry while you make the best
Of getting shot through a port that goes through your chest
Only one outcome only one direction
so much will and so much connection
You're doing things that I never thought possible
You're one of a kind girl unstoppable
They say everything must happen for a reason
so what is the reason
They talk about things this heavy like religion
how was she chosen
I know it's so unfair that this could happen
to anyone like you who so loves everybody
All you need to do is just have fun and keep on fighting
you rock
