Please take those bad thoughts far away
And remind us all you're not afraid
If it comes back, they'll be hell to pay
Once again, woah
It begins with one incision
Optimistic for remission
Maybe I'm the one who should listen
More often, woah
So we take a knife
And cut out pieces that don't seem right
And it takes a life
But I'm not letting it poison mine
I remember what you said to me
We could slow our own recovery
If we soak up too much sympathy
For ourselves, woah
I'm a stranger in a foreign room
As I try my best to comfort you
Got my fingers crossed hoping very soon
This will end, woah
So we take a knife
And cut out pieces that don't seem right
And it takes a life
But I'm not letting it poison mine
So we take a knife
And cut out pieces that don't seem right
And it takes a life
But I'm not letting it poison mine
