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    these lyrics are submitted by OarSmaN
