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 that's sleeping in the ground
It's a camera trying to photograph a sound
It's a case for the basic flaw
The end of the film in the coming attractions
It's a cell that's spinning out of control
It's the light at the edge of a black hole
The scream of an orchestra,
A total collapse or an overreaction
In your blood there is a sad sad song
Circulating through your nervous system
It's killing you and it's bringing me along.
You were the cancer in my life.
You were the cancer all the time.
You were the cancer and that's all you'll ever be
It's the comfort in a bathtub full of ice
It's the promise of a peaceful afterlife
From the string of a violin wound too tight
And it's gasping for oxygen
It's the "signal" that's sent out "over the air"
At the speed of a thousand unheard prayers
It's the faith in the chemicals:
A shot in the dark, the size of a particle
It's the blood from a neon sign
Tying to light away through your insides
Make a map of the badlands
Watch your life slip through your hands-
They're not for shaking
They're not for praying
They're just for holding close everything you love
In this fragile little a dream
I see you're coming down and no one knows where
I 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 and that's all you'll ever be
In your blood there is a sad sad song
Circulating through your nervous system
It's killing you and it's bringing me along.
It's a cell that's spinning out of control
It's the light at the edge of a black hole
The scream of an orchestra,
A total collapse or an overreaction
You were the cancer in my life.
You were the cancer all the time.
You were the cancer and 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 and that's all you'll ever be
