Cancer Lyrics

The touch that I adored
This love that couldn't be ignored
Your hand in mine
A touch of heaven, heaven

Stars also die...
The astral brightness stops shining
I hope you'll reach your paradise
Star, why did you leave me?
The astral brightness stops shining
Tonight I cannot stop crying...

Wasted times, a kind of crime
Another way to slowly die
I so much regret the regrets...
Acid rain, tears inside
All consuming, hungry monster
Love is a cancer, a cancer

The touch that I adored
This love that couldn't be ignored
Your hand in mine
A touch of heaven, heaven

Stars also die...
The astral brightness stops shining
I hope you'll reach your paradise
Star, why did you leave me?
The astral brightness stops shining
Tonight I cannot stop crying...

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.

Someone messed up the first part:

Wasted times, a kind of crime Another way to slowly die I so much regret the regrets... Memories torn into pieces When everything became diseased That couldn't be life... life

The touch that I adored This love that couldn't be ignored Your hand in mine A touch of heaven, heaven

Stars (Stars) also die... The astral brightness stops shining I hope you'll reach your paradise Star (Star), why did you leave me? The astral brightness stops shining Tonight I cannot stop crying...

Wasted times, a kind of crime Another way to slowly die I so much regret the regrets... Acid rain, tears inside All consuming, hungry monster Love is a cancer, a cancer

The touch that I adored This love that couldn't be ignored Your hand in mine A touch of heaven, heaven

Stars (Stars) also die... The astral brightness stops shining I hope you'll reach your paradise Star (Star), why did you leave me? The astral brightness stops shining Tonight I cannot stop crying.

(The touch that I adored) (Your hand in mine) (The touch that I adored)

Stars (Stars) also die... The astral brightness stops shining I hope you'll reach your paradise Star (Star), why did you leave me? The astral brightness stops shining Tonight I cannot stop crying.

Stars (Stars) also die... The astral brightness stops shining I hope you'll reach your paradise Star, why did you leave me? The astral brightness stops shining Tonight I cannot stop crying.
