ghost native – cancer in the room lyrics
rationalized greed masked as empathy
your smile was so promising
a thief dressed like a king
lies begin to grow their own teeth and nails
a mannequin in human form
a plastic soul in a plastic world
it’s hard to keep up with the times
when i don’t want to open my eyes
take the world for granted
that’s all you can do
consumption with no end or intent
this is getting to the climax
the inevitable end
(when there’s nothing left)
does it feel good to live for yourself?
denial has such sweet taste
we can ignore the cancer in the room
but it’s seeping into you
we can keep hiding from virtue
but time will take us
it’s hard to keep up with the times
when i don’t want to open my eyes
it’s hard to keep up with the times
when i don’t want to
you’re a tumor on this earth
you left everyone behind
traded love for all you’ve gained
and left with no spine
it’s hard to accept this world i’ve come to know
but i take solace in knowing that you are hollow
it’s hard to keep up with the times
when i don’t want to open my eyes
it’s hard to keep up with the times
when i don’t want to
we can ignore the cancer in the room
but it’s seeping into you
we can keep hiding from virtue
but time will take us
