Malignance

So it begins
Misery wins
It's not like I didn't try to fight it
But it wormed its way in
Made a home in my skin
And poisoned all the good that I'd been practicing
Take the reins from my hands
I can't navigate my way through this
I won't lie
But I'll try

What's it like there today?
Give me a reason to come back
Cloud nine's overcrowded anyway
But I've earned my stay
Don't ask me what it's like to feel good inside
You might be benign but you metastasize

And there's no one to blame this on
Just me
I need to take my own advice and breathe slowly
Don't think about the way that you feel
Easier said than done when it's real
Let's rewind the days
Try pick up the pace
I didn't get a response so I'll ask you again, I'll ask you again

What's it like there today?
Give me a reason to come back
Cloud nine's overcrowded anyway
But I've earned my stay
Don't ask me what it's like to feel good inside
You might be benign but you metastasize, you metastasize
Don't ask me what it's like to feel good inside

Don't ask me what it's like to feel good inside
