Cancer Lyrics

I made a mistake
pure greed
to get you
to talk to me
and now it's like
everytime I turn
your presence is burned
right in my brain

I made a mistake
heart on my sleeve
I should've learned
the whole sea
can be a terrible place to be
you're shell makes you are hard little crap to reach

I hope you're happy, on the oceans floor
but the other fish, I simply ignore
I cannot help what's inside this brain
but neither can you

so sorry if it seems like I'm a freak
normal is not my can of tea

see cuz when I made that call I've never been so scared
I stared at the seagulls they were so prepared
with their tallons sharp, and the sun was bright
they lifted you up and took you out of sight
now it's just me here with all my twins
nothing connects us in this mess we're in

now I need a break
my body
it breaks down
like sand at this beach

now it seems like, everytime I learn
the essense is turned
it falls down the drain
so I sweep the leaves
I'm spurred like the dog
that lies dead on the street

death is a terrible thing to see
hell makes heaven a little harder contract to breach

So, I hope you're grateful that you're life's adored
if I had one wish, you'd put down that sword
I can't get mad at self inflicted pain
it'd be best if you had not a clue

see, truly, I'm a music geek
I listen to the same songs as you as I sleep,
and knowing you might here this, I've never been so scared
I feel nothing but amateur and unprepared
and the public's out there and they're throwing knives
I hope that my shield will make it through this night
now it's just me here with a few fine friends
nothing with ressurect us
until I try again
