Moments Before the Smashing of Future Ryan Lyrics

Yours is the only cancer I accept
Yours is the only cancer I accept

Because it's you in my lungs
and I cough you up for days
for days

I can cough you up for days
Because it's you in my lungs
and I cough you up for days
for days

It's you in my lungs
and I cough you up for days
for days

Roof to bench to leathery ground
Roof to bench to leathery ground

Roof to bench to leathery ground
Roof to bench to leathery ground
Roof to bench to leathery ground

And I kick dirt up and into the air
And I kick dirt up and into the air

Away and under
Away and under
Away and under
Away and under

And I kick dirt up and into the air
And I kick dirt up and into the air

Away and under
(Away and under)
Away and under
(Away and under)

It's you in my lungs
And I cough you up for days

Roof to bench to leathery ground
Roof to bench to leathery ground

Roof to bench to leathery ground
Roof to bench to leathery ground
Roof to bench to leathery ground

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This reminds me specifically of marijuana. Its might be the only cancer causing thing he smokes, and it causes him to cough. The "Roof to bench to leathery ground" are all places that one could smoke.
