Malignant

Up at dawn all hope is gone
You best prepare to move along
The worm has turned from bad to worse
Bear witness to the family curse
A sickness comes as fate to fall
A monster to destroy us all
The less you want the more you'll get
A lifetime's worth of self regret

A fate to fall
A fate to fall
A fate to fall

Benign today just like yesterday
Hope tomorrow is just like that
With a word it can turn and all go away
Diagnosing a fact as a fact

No saving grace
No time to waste

Neighbors and friends at their sympathetic best
"if there's anything we can do..."
Only if you can keep me alive
Negotiating the truth as the truth

No saving grace
No time to waste
A tumors pace
Just count the days
No saving grace
A fade to fate

Observable signs mark the passing of time
The elephant's often ignored
The worst yet to come as metastasis begun
And denial is never the cure

A change in your skin as your ending begins
Time to grab on to whatever you've got
Bouts of fatigue as your abdomen bleeds
The cancer taking whatever it wants

No saving grace
No time to waste
A tumors pace
Just count the days
No saving grace
A fade to fate

Our fate to fall
Our fate to fall
Our fate to fall

Down at dusk cause we're all fucked
The best laid plan's a stroke of luck
No heroes chance to save the day
We're all just one step from the grave
Genetics will decide our fate
And days will pass to sit and wait
In crises pray your soul be blessed
The next in line will clean the mess
