Jim Brooks - Cancer Cells
Broken promises
You've taught me how to lie
Broken mirrors
I should just lie down and die
From the feelings you hide
and the hurt you keep inside
To the emotional scars
and the broken heart
It's tearing you up inside
like dancing cancer cells
Love me like you used to
Show me the affection I once knew
I always counted on you
At zero hour, you came through
I still remember having dreams to share
I still remember when you cared
I still want to get back to there
You used to be my only light
Do you remember knowing everything?
Here I stand
Come to me and take my hand
and we'll walk towards the light
illuminated by all our glory
Though I've seen your weak side
and your anger rises like the tide
You’re still the only one in my eyes
There are no other thoughts in my mind
Now you're a bleeding icon
A symbol of isolation
A statue crumbled to the ground
with no sign of will to be found
Deliverance is a lost cause
though I cannot move on
Heaven is a place within your mind
so don't feel the need to be kind
Simply wallow in the grave you’ve made
and respect the standard from which you came
All your sense is slowly draining
like a confusing abstract painting
You’re about to hit the bottom floor
and I cannot stay idle anymore
You have left me much too soon
This is not the way it should be
Your tormented screams vibrate throughout my mind
This is not the way it should end
You've taught me how to lie
Broken mirrors
I should just lie down and die
From the feelings you hide
and the hurt you keep inside
To the emotional scars
and the broken heart
It's tearing you up inside
like dancing cancer cells
Love me like you used to
Show me the affection I once knew
I always counted on you
At zero hour, you came through
I still remember having dreams to share
I still remember when you cared
I still want to get back to there
You used to be my only light
Do you remember knowing everything?
Here I stand
Come to me and take my hand
and we'll walk towards the light
illuminated by all our glory
Though I've seen your weak side
and your anger rises like the tide
You’re still the only one in my eyes
There are no other thoughts in my mind
Now you're a bleeding icon
A symbol of isolation
A statue crumbled to the ground
with no sign of will to be found
Deliverance is a lost cause
though I cannot move on
Heaven is a place within your mind
so don't feel the need to be kind
Simply wallow in the grave you’ve made
and respect the standard from which you came
All your sense is slowly draining
like a confusing abstract painting
You’re about to hit the bottom floor
and I cannot stay idle anymore
You have left me much too soon
This is not the way it should be
Your tormented screams vibrate throughout my mind
This is not the way it should end
