Everyone knows that cancer Takes bites of every family And it eats up families whole Dance around the issue Take issue with the answers provided The past few years radiate with treatment But to every day shell put her cap on and greet them Shes got demons but youll never meet them Yeah, we hope one day That she can finally beat them all She laughs for us She laughs so we dont worry She smiles through the pain And keeps the details blurry My intentions are not to expose The depths of her trouble arent mine to disclose But like evening rain on the petal of a rose It drips down to the earth and it begins to compose And if theres one thing that remains So crystal clear to us Its that the wandering hands of the gods Are so goddamn mysterious Like there could be a justification For the lives it takes And the lives that its taken This isnt a eulogy or a requiem Just some words Ive sketched out Cause I havent said them This isnt about her father or brother Just a few simple words so she knows that I love her And tragedy will never disaffect her I hope she knows how much I respect her My intentions are not to expose, in verse or in prose The depths of her troubles arent mine to disclose But like evening rain on the petal of a rose It drips down to the earth and begins to compose A song worth singing A world that keeps on stinging And one sinking feeling Its always worth clinging onto And a stone at a glass house Thats always worth slinging She laughs for us She laughs so we dont worry She smiles through the pain And keeps the details blurry My intentions are not to expose The depths of her trouble arent mine to disclose But like evening rain on the petal of a rose It drips down to the earth and it begins to compose Saints walk the earth They all patrol the skies Theyre the people right behind you Riding tandem through the night Its the comfort thats discovered Between two sets of eyes Its the hand that stills the other That shakes like candlelight Like candlelight
