Cancer

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Richard Patrick] I cross the oceans, I cross the seas I cross the mountains, like a new disease I cross the borders, I cross the line Never to see the light 'til the end of time [Verse 2: Richard Patrick] I've seen the canyons, I've seen the cities I've seen the prisons that take such pity When it comes to you, when it comes to me It's just money that sets you free [Chorus: Richard Patrick, D'arcy Wretzky, both] (Hey, my children) What seems important won't last forever (Hey, my children) What seems important won't last forever [Verse 3: Richard Patrick] Take a look at the Earth from a plane You'll see the Earth cut up and in pain Take a look at LA from the sky What you see should make you cry [Chorus: Richard Patrick, D'arcy Wretzky, both] (Hey, my children) What seems important won't last forever (Hey, my children) What seems important won't last forever [Bridge: Richard Patrick] I'm the scum of the earth I'm the scum of the earth I'm the scum of the earth I'm the scum of the earth I'm the scum of the earth I'm the scum of the earth I'm the scum of the earth I'm the scum of the earth I'm the scum of the earth (I am a cancer) I'm the scum of the Earth (I am a cancer) I'm the scum of the Earth (I am a cancer) I'm the scum of the Earth (I am a cancer) I'm the scum of the Earth I am humanity (I'm the scum of the Earth) I am humanity (I'm the scum of the Earth) I am humanity (I'm the scum of the Earth) I am humanity [Chorus: Richard Patrick, D'arcy Wretzky, both] (Hey, my children) What seems important won't last forever (Hey, my children) What seems important won't last forever (Hey, my children) What seems important won't last forever (Hey, my children) What seems important won't last forever
