I remember when we had so much in common,
When I was innocent and you were lonely,
You said angry but we both know
You were just alone.

You said I saved you,
But I was just your cancer.

You smoke so much,
You care so little,
You live to take the pain I gave you
And exploit me.

I said you saved me,
But you are just a cancer.

You must forget that I hurt too,
That when you strip me down
And put me on display
I see my shame too.

We don’t believe in being saved,
Eventually we are all eaten by cancer.
