lyrics
Everyday a new day is rising. People wake up but not me…
It’s coming from the inside
Passing through every inch of myself
I can feel it crawling and spreading
This sickness is driving me insane
I can feel it coming out of nowhere
It’s black, it hurts, sometimes it’s white
It has small legs, nails and a dirty skin
full of parasites
My only pleasure is to drink some water
My only wish is to be alive
For both my wife and my daughter
I’ll beat this cancerworm tonight
My only will is to ease the pain
I close my eyes but my mind is in flames
I’m climbing the mountain of my own life
and slipping backwards into the night
I can’t remember when it’s been the last time I managed to sleep through at least half a night. Not even those miracle pills seem to make a difference.
Each new day comes with hopes that the drugs will make things better, but my body tells the brutal truth.
It’s coming from the inside
Swallowing every hope and belief
I can see its ugly face
Survival seems like a brutal race
And I feel it coming out of nowhere
And I know I won't escape
But I have the love of my daughter
And this vile beast goes away
My only pleasure is to drink some water
My only wish is to be alive
For both my wife and my daughter
I’ll beat this cancerworm tonight
My only will is to ease the pain
I close my eyes but my mind is in flames
I’m climbing the mountain of my own life
and slipping backwards into the night
I feel weaker and weaker, the pain is still unbearable and I can only stay still, watch the empty walls wait for the day to end and have it repeat once more.
I wish that sometime in my sleep this will end suddenly but the eyes always open and here we go again and again.
