I: Transference

I've been running away
And I've been followed since you cursed my life
I saw the cancer you brought to our home
I heard the fiend speaking through you

I let it speak to me
And I kept hearing its words for years
It has been growing strong behind my back
It has been waiting for me to become weak

You let it follow me before I had found my peace
And I tried to fight it back, to make it cease
I strived to find my home and it always forced me to leave
How can I make myself believe

No prayers will make it leave
I've stopped here to face defeat
