Cancer
My mother has been drinking
She tells me it's not enough
There comes a time when thinking
Can never replace blood
And the rest of the family
They paid us no mind
It seems they just can't see
What's right in front of their eyes
And I know you don't have long
We're talking on borrowed time
Your eyes speak louder than your voice ever could
Silent and strong
And I beg you, forgive me
For I was much too afraid
I just couldn't bear to see you lying there
With a blank, pale face
Oh, Lord
Where have you gone?
The water's rising up
It's filling up our lungs
Oh, Lord
Where have you been?
We're choking on our pride
We are all dyin'
And oh, Lord
Where have you gone?
The water's rising up
We don't have very long
And oh, Lord
Where have you been?
We're choking on our pride
We are all dyin'
Yeah
My mother has been drinking
She tells me I'm not enough
I'm such a Goddamn weakling
I've never spilled my blood
Fuck
She tells me it's not enough
There comes a time when thinking
Can never replace blood
And the rest of the family
They paid us no mind
It seems they just can't see
What's right in front of their eyes
And I know you don't have long
We're talking on borrowed time
Your eyes speak louder than your voice ever could
Silent and strong
And I beg you, forgive me
For I was much too afraid
I just couldn't bear to see you lying there
With a blank, pale face
Oh, Lord
Where have you gone?
The water's rising up
It's filling up our lungs
Oh, Lord
Where have you been?
We're choking on our pride
We are all dyin'
And oh, Lord
Where have you gone?
The water's rising up
We don't have very long
And oh, Lord
Where have you been?
We're choking on our pride
We are all dyin'
Yeah
My mother has been drinking
She tells me I'm not enough
I'm such a Goddamn weakling
I've never spilled my blood
Fuck
