Decent cancer
There's a plague that goes on and onIt's lethal in size and it hurts like a thorn in my sideIt's renowned far and wide as the name of our downfallThe name that will bury us allIt's a God among godsIt's a cancer withinIt's the father of sin and of love and desire and jealousyIt's the sum of all parts and we call it the human heartIt doesn't know how I take my coffeeIt doesn't care how I play my partIt doesn't care about truth or liesAnd it never gives any good adviceIt doesn't care if I'm suicidalNo consideration for my precious hindDoesn't give a damn if I stand or fallAnd it's got a beat that says it allStill it's a decent cancerThat's keeping me aliveEating me aliveThere's a kindred of flamesA secret society of oneA spawn of the sun that burns like a candle behind my eyesA searing light from which I cannot runSongtexteIt's a thing of beauty and flesh and of stoneLike a castleA throneWhere kings and queens were crowned to rotIt's the heart of it all and it's the only heart we've gotIt doesn't know how I take my coffeeIt doesn't care how I play my partIt doesn't care about truth or liesAnd it never gives any good adviceIt doesn't care if I'm suicidalNo consideration for my precious hindDoesn't give a damn if I stand or fallAnd it's got a beat that says it allStill it's a decent cancerThat's keeping me aliveEating me alive Aus Songtexte Mania
