Say in vain There is now no fucking way That I would measure up To the standards I should heed The tenants of the human race I know how long I've been the sum of my parts A pile of ones and zeros Can you see the cancer in my brain Is digging deeper in Slowly swallowing Cause I'm the wraith holding the sails At my own neck What's left to know You knew that I was no saint And I don't want to say what you say This disease is the cure Can you see the cancer in my brain Is digging deeper in Slowly swallowing Cause I'm the wraith holding the sails At my own neck Maybe, just maybe Fate will cut me one last break Cause it's black But it's all that I'm used to A stranger waiting to emerge And claim what I once was Can you see the cancer in my brain Is digging deeper in Slowly swallowing Cause I'm the wraith holding the sails At my own neck Death means nothing to men like me It's the event that proves them right And the sails still at my neck The cancer is sinking, sinking, sinking
