Negative Growth Lyrics - Dreams You Dread - Benediction

Benign, the human form 

Malignancy disease 

Metastasis major cause 

Migration of the beast 

Tumor invasion 

Into the stream 

Disturbed balance of life 

Trigger wound response 

And await to die 

Outright attack 

Prognosis made 

And the growth will spread 

As cells break away 

Blistering assault on pure 

Gnawing into cells 

Slow disease, yet so demure 

Struggling you ail 

Insidious disease 

Evicts me from my life 

Disfiguring, absurd 

The inner parasite 

Soul destroying, my skin crawls 

Unseen, my body fights a war 

Dig deep the healthy flesh 

My miserable remnant 

Ruined by this ruthless waste 

Paying my penance 

Reproduce so disorderly 

Through bloodstream malignance flows 

Detected early, a surgical cure 

Perchance a growth in the bones 

Blistering assault on pure 

Gnawing into cells 

Slow demise and so demure 

Listen, funeral bells
