Ashbury Heights - Decent Cancer lyrics

There's a plague that goes on and on It's lethal in size and it hurts like a thorn in my side It's renowned far and wide as the name of our downfall The name that will bury us all It's a God among gods It's a cancer within It's the father of sin and of love and desire and jealousy It's the sum of all parts and we call it the human heart It doesn't know how I take my coffee It doesn't care how I play my part It doesn't care about truth or lies And it never gives any good advice It doesn't care if I'm suicidal No consideration for my precious hind Doesn't give a damn if I stand or fall And it's got a beat that says it all Still it's a decent cancer That's keeping me alive Eating me alive There's a kindred of flames A secret society of one A spawn of the sun that burns like a candle behind my eyes A searing light from which I cannot run It's a thing of beauty and flesh and of stone Like a castle A throne Where kings and queens were crowned to rot It's the heart of it all and it's the only heart we've got It doesn't know how I take my coffee It doesn't care how I play my part It doesn't care about truth or lies And it never gives any good advice It doesn't care if I'm suicidal No consideration for my precious hind Doesn't give a damn if I stand or fall And it's got a beat that says it all Still it's a decent cancer That's keeping me alive Eating me alive
