[Verse 1] I found the bruise Under the skin I swear looked clean Tiny shadow Growing teeth in every dream Thought it was me Thought it was just how I was made But it keeps pulling Dragging me into the same old grave [Chorus] Cut it from the bone All that rots me from the inside If my right hand leads me wrong I won’t let it steer this life Tear that cancer from the throne All that calls me back to night Cut it from the bone Throw it in the fire outside [Break] [Verse 2] I taste the ash From every word I swore I’d quit Sweet on the tongue Turns to chains the more I sip It wears my face Laughs with my voice when I give in Parasite heart Feeding every secret sin [Chorus] Cut it from the bone All that rots me from the inside If my right hand leads me wrong I won’t let it steer this life Tear that cancer from the throne All that calls me back to night Cut it from the bone Throw it in the fire outside [Bridge] If my eye loves the dark Pluck it out, let me see If my pride builds the ark Let the flood fall on me If my tongue, if my thoughts If my anger seeds the stain I will lay them on the altar I will never take them back again [Solo] [Chorus/Outro] Cut it from the bone All that rots me from the inside If my right hand leads me wrong I won’t let it steer this life Tear that cancer from the throne All that calls me back to night Cut it from the bone Throw it in the fire outside!
