Cut this cancer from my heart
It causes my soul to bleed
An empty echo filled with pain
Where peace can't intercede

Confusion has become my hiding place
Words, just a means to an end
My thoughts cry out in solitude
Looking for a way to ascend

Repetition is now just a prison
My memories, just scars from the past
My dreams fade away like a mist in the night
That are destined never to last

Hope, an illusion, no more than a myth
A lie just meant to deceive
Forgiveness, a promise born to be broken
A promise you'll never receive

Cut this cancer from my heart
Before I surely die
Malignant words I can't survive
Words like the sound of goodbye
