The threat against my life has gotten worse

I've seen doctors after doctors and been visited by nurse after nurse

Still this shadow killer is spreading through my body faster than a witch's curse


This silent killer is after me, creeping through my body, ready to take my life

He doesn't care that I might be someone's mother, daughter, sister or wife

He might not be as fast as a bullet or as sharp as a knife

But either way he's still out to claim my life


There's nowhere safe enough for me to run and hide

My killer is always one step ahead of me, we always collide

How can I fight him from the outside if he's eating me up alive on the inside

I'm not his only victim, he has claimed other lives worldwide


I never thought that this killer would come after me

Sneaking up on me when he knew I could see

I was so blind sighted, I never got the chance to flee

Still, I'm trying to fight him, to kill him before he kills me


No one is safe from this evil, deadly monster

This monster with many names, but we call him cancer

I don't know how he chooses his victims, I've asked, but I never got an answer
