My eyes are glowing red, My lips chapped and faded. My skin like porcelain, My life being wasted. I have cancer, I'm leaving you. Words cannot express the guilt I feel, I can never be made new. You said I'll be okay, Truth is I'm the **** You said you'll never be the same, Just promise to come visit me upon my hill. Imagine what it will be like when I'm gone, I have to think now before it kills my brain. Dear brother promise me one thing, Think of me often,even when your old and lean upon your Cain. I can feel Death surround me, Slowly choking out the life. I wish I could do it over agian, To take out all the strife. I close my eyes as the darkness floods in. I feel my heart skip several beats, I cough harshly, I'm wearing thin. My breath starts to leave me, "Please don't go! Doctor we need help!" You scream. I'm tortured enough, I wish you'd leave me be! My breathing becomes heavy, My heart starts to stop. You sit here holding my hand,I have no more levy. I have no more reason to live, Not even you can save me. So into the darkness I give....                                     "Why did you give up?                           Didn't you know I need you?                                     Why did you leave me?                     Now all I am is down and blue." You cry as you try to understand. You don't know why I let go, You never once let go of my hand...

Cancer
My eyes are glowing red, My lips chapped and faded. My skin like porcelain, My life being wasted. I have cancer, I'm leaving you. Words cannot express the guilt I feel, I can never be made new. You said I'll be okay, Truth is I'm the **** You said you'll never be the same, Just promise to come visit me upon my hill. Imagine what it will be like when I'm gone, I have to think now before it kills my brain. Dear brother promise me one thing, Think of me often,even when your old and lean upon your Cain. I can feel Death surround me, Slowly choking out the life. I wish I could do it over agian, To take out all the strife. I close my eyes as the darkness floods in. I feel my heart skip several beats, I cough harshly, I'm wearing thin. My breath starts to leave me, "Please don't go! Doctor we need help!" You scream. I'm tortured enough, I wish you'd leave me be! My breathing becomes heavy, My heart starts to stop. You sit here holding my hand,I have no more levy. I have no more reason to live, Not even you can save me. So into the darkness I give....                                     "Why did you give up?                           Didn't you know I need you?                                     Why did you leave me?                     Now all I am is down and blue." You cry as you try to understand. You don't know why I let go, You never once let go of my hand...
