Cancer Lyrics

Turn away
If you could get me a drink
Of water 'cause my lips are chapped and faded
Call my aunt Marie
Help her gather all my things
And bury me in all my favorite colors
My sisters and my brothers, still
I will not kiss you
'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you

I will not kiss you (kiss you)
Lips are chapped and faded
Call my (turn away)
Lips are chapped and faded (faded)
Kiss you (kiss you)
Lips are chapped and faded
Call my (turn away)
Lips are chapped and faded (faded)

Turn away
'Cause I'm awful just to see
And all my hairs abandoned all my body
All my agony
Know that I will never marry
Baby, I'm just soggy from the chemo
I'm counting down the days to go
This just ain't livin'
And I just hope you know

I will not kiss you (kiss you)
Lips are chapped and faded
Call my (turn away)
Lips are chapped and faded (faded)
Kiss you (kiss you)
Lips are chapped and faded
Call my (turn away)
Lips are chapped and faded (faded)

If you say (if you say)
Goodbye today (goodbye today)
I'll ask you to be true (I'll ask you to be true)
'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you
Yes, the hardest part of this

I will not kiss you (kiss you)
Lips are chapped and faded
Call my (call my)
Lips are chapped and faded (faded)
Kiss you (kiss you)
Lips are chapped and faded
Call my (call my)
Lips are chapped and faded (faded)

What is the Meaning of Cancer?

Exploring the depths of despair and resignation, this poignant track delves into the emotional turmoil experienced by someone grappling with terminal illness. The lyrics poignantly capture the physical and emotional pain of cancer, emphasizing the protagonist's concern for their loved ones as they prepare for an inevitable departure. The repeated refrain about not being able to kiss due to chapped lips symbolizes a deeper disconnect from normalcy and intimacy, highlighting the isolation that often accompanies severe illness. It’s a raw, heartfelt plea for understanding and a touching acknowledgment of the struggle between clinging to life and letting go. #TerminalIllness #EmotionalStruggle #twentyonepilots
