Cancer
Shapist Lyrics

An abstract living dream
Living in an unreal, non-existent world

Of a cardboard cut-out meaning
Empty and meaningless existence

Vivid highs and vibrant lies
False hopes and deception

of a slowly tearing seam
Life falling apart bit by bit

We are the plague, these are bleeding souls
People are suffering and we are the cause

We need a change, I find that there's a hole inside us all
We need to change ourselves for the better

Hearts made of wood
Emotionless hearts

You pile into your fire
You're bringing your own destruction

Burn down your white washed walls
Break free from your self-made prison

So you appreciate the roof that falls
Only when everything is gone, you will realize its worth

Terminal viruses
An incurable disease

Fluctuating through
Spreading uncontrollably

An Immaculate portrait of perfection
A perfect image that doesn't exist

Mutations progress inside a world in distress
Bad things happen in a troubled world

You can't escape the deception
You can't avoid being misled

A catastrophic progression
A disastrous forward motion

This is the end of an era
The end of a certain time period

This is the start of a new
The beginning of something new

As you dance around
As you ignore your troubles

Dizzy you fall asleep
You fall asleep without realizing the danger

Kaleidoscope eyes
Eyes that see things in a fun-house mirror

Stare through stained glass windows
Looking for the beauty in the broken

Burn them alive, just to see the embers tremble
Destroy what you appreciate to feel alive

Starlight is only bright
The only light left is a dim one

When the sky is clear
Only when things are good

We fill our lungs (we fill our lungs)
We breathe in

We fill our lungs with the smog
We breathe in what's harmful

And hold our breath, until we disappear
We keep breathing in the bad until we're gone
