Resisting the Shadows: Unveiling the Dark Meaning of Construcdead's 'Cancer'
Lyrics
A war of independence,
A struggle for independence
But have you done your share
Questioning individual contributions
By human hand we're
Human actions lead to a grim hopelessness
Driven into a dark despair
Describing a bleak, dark situation
A call for truth, a yell for help
Expressing a need for truth and help
But are you going places,
Questioning personal progress and well-being
Or burnt beyond repair?
Wondering if one is irreparably damaged
They get closer, are you set?
Anticipation of a threat getting closer
They crawl nearer, are you set?
-You've fallen for their cancer
Falling victim to a metaphorical "cancer" without cure
No cure for your decease
-Fallen for their cancer
-No cure for your decease
-Your feed yourself with maggots
Symbolic consumption of negativity for strength
Just to get strength to stand
-Well, have you got the guts to
-Stand up to their demands
Questioning the strength to resist external pressures
Or are you just too weak
-For taking on the fight
-A little imbecile who
Labeling someone as weak and hesitant
Don't dare staying ground
-They get closer, are you set?
Reiteration of a threatening presence
You've fallen for their cancer
Repetition of succumbing to a destructive force
No cure for your decease
-Fallen for their cancer
-No cure for your decease
-Come taste the life beneath
Invitation to experience a harsh reality
Down here it's you we eat
-Come closer you're the meat
-Don't try to speak
-Why suffer when you can be a part of us?
Questioning the point of resistance when assimilation is an option
Fallen for their cancer
Reiteration of the incurable nature of the "cancer"
No cure for your decease
-Fallen for their cancer
-No cure for your decease
-Fallen for their cancer
Final emphasis on the irreversible consequences
No cure for your decease
