Our Courage, Our Cancer

From hospitals to honesty
And everything you need of me
I'll be there, I'll be there
From hospitals to honesty
And everything you need of me
I'll be there, I'll be there

If this was your last chance
To say what you needed to
And give them every thought in a verse
Could you stomach the hurt?
Could you stomach the healing word?

From hospitals to honesty
And everything that you need of me
I'll be there

My inspiration
My guidance
My home

We think of you with love
And speak of you with pride
Does your heart pull on your throat like mine?
I will try to live without you by my side

I will look up to the stars
So you will forever see
The best part of you
Still lives in me

The north stands for nothing
The true and the trusting
The east's everlasting
The cracked and the rusting
The south is the salt
That will seal your sores
The west is the weakness
The strength to defeat us

The time took for granted
The before and the after
For questions and your answers
Our courage, our cancer

The time took for granted
The before and the after
For questions and your answers
Our courage, our cancer
