The Catalyst

Father, take my eyes and hold them to the fire
My soul is black as night, and I can't see you there

Sever me; I need to bleed out this infection (I need to)
Cauterize, burn the flesh, and make me whole again

Once again I throw myself onto shards of glass
Just leave me on the ground
I will just do it again for I am the destroyer
I am the catalyst; you will offer me a way out
And I am the destroyer; don't expect me to ever be free

My vision is darkening; I need to bleed out this infection (I need too)
I am the destroyer, I am the catalyst

Sever me, I need to bleed, out this infection (I need too)
Cauterize, burn the flesh, and make me whole again

It's too late (I will never survive)
Just leave me on the ground (There's nothing left inside)
The cancer has taken a hold of me (Into the ashes I fall)
The cancer has taken its hold on me

I am the cancer, I am the cancer

I am the cancer
