And now you’re in my heaGrt
CI should’ve cut you out back at the staGrt
[Bridge]
EmNow I’m D/F#afraid there’s C/Gno cure for me
EmNo dose D/F#of emotional chC/Gemotherapy
BCan halt my pathetic decEmline

I should’ve had you removed back when you were benign
[Verse]
I picked you up like a virus
Like meningococcal meningitis
Now I can’t feel my legs
When you’re around I can’t get out of bed
[Bridge]
I’ve left it too late to risk an operation
I know there’s no hope for a clean amputation
The successful removal of you
Would probably kill me too
[Verse]
You grew on me like carcinoma
Crept up on me like untreated glaucoma
CNow I fiCmnd it hGard to see
CThis untreated dCmose of you has Gblinded me
[Bridge to Key Change]
I should’ve consulted my local physician
I’m stuck now forever with this tunnel vision
My periphery is screwed
