How routine it feels like
Like I fell through the floor
Crushed by another passing
It’s all happened before
Still I’m not pretending
To know every story and every choice
I’m just some voice below
The background noise
I hope that it’s cancer
And not something else
Cause I don’t need anymore things
I don’t wanna talk about
How could I think such a thing?
Who am I to say?
Daily devastation that I can’t validate
“What’s wrong with you?”
They’ll ask about me
“You’re done, you’re through”
Still I’m not pretending
To know every story and every choice
I hope that it’s cancer
And not something else
Cause I don’t need anymore things
I don’t wanna talk about
I don’t need an answer
Care about heaven or hell
I hope that it’s cancer
So what does that say about myself?
Meaning behind the song:
"Cancer"
"Jon wrote the chorus when a hero of his
passed away. When he heard that he had
died, Jon's initial reaction was that he
hoped it was cancer, rather than something
like suicide or an overdose. Then, upon that
realization, he thought, 'How could you
think such a thing? Why was that my
immediate reaction?' Hoping for cancer is
the most horrible thing you could hope for,
really. But it speaks to the notion of
degradation, the idea of Color Decay. The
chorus is asking, 'What does my reaction
say about myself?' For most of us, it's our
favorite song on the album."
bro, u just open my mind, ty
Love it 💕
knowing this just makes me more mad at the fb comments ive seen. seen more than one comment on their promotional posts where people are saying theyre liking the album but the song "cancer" is effectively tasteless and gross
@@RogueCowTurd ironic cause it’s one of the most real and intense songs on the album which is saying a lot because the album is so good
Thank you, I've been looking for this ever since the song came out. Do you perhaps also know what the context of the acoustic part at the end is?
Honestly I really want to hear an acoustic version of this
YES! oh my god PLEASE TDWP! You MUST do an acoustic version!
Well...we got a taste of it with the ending of the song, just.....it's such a tease, you want the whole thing! ACOUSTIC VERSION OF CANCER PLEASE!! and thank you!
totally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your wish was recently granted
@@neneargueta8332 where?
There will be one on the deluxe vinyl, so I think they'll release it sooner or later
I'm 26 and got married 4 years ago to my high school sweetheart.
This week I got biopsy results that the large mass on my thyroid is cancer.
This song hits different.
You got this mate
You got it bro
You'll get through it.
I believe in you
we believe in you!
Fuck cancer.
You've got this bro. Keep fighting. Your sweetheart and all of us need you!
My depression gets so fucking bad and overwhelming that it actually feels like I'm dying, this one struck a deep nerve.
get away from the city and go enjoy nature bud.
As a cancer patient I’ve definitely felt this way, or at least I can interpret the lyrics to fit how I’ve felt. It’s hard to explain.
Don't worry you explained it very well. They are extremely good at writing. Their songs are made so that we can all relate to them in our own way.
Hope you're feeling better btw
Thanks for the/your perspective... Initially I thought some might take offence to the lyrics
I hope you are doing well now.
Read the lyrics are because one of the band members lost someone they looked up to and they hoped it was cancer, literally because they didn’t want to deal with the weight of something like a suicide.
Hope you’re okay man, I can’t imagine
Fuck… as someone with a chronic illness, getting diagnosed at 10, the family losing most of their savings to medicines and treatment that were basically over $20,000, my dad being fired during the first months of treatment, mom not being able to work after an accident… shit like that really makes you think that maybe if you died you would’ve lifted a burden when deep inside you know it ain’t right. Thanks for the song boys, first time I ever shed a tear to a song.
God fucking damn it dude, I can't even imagine the strength needed to get through all that... Just please know that you are not the problem, the health care system is the problem - you deserve help!!
The health system and the financial system are to blame. Not you my man ❤️ let's keep trudging, I've had my hardships, both parents are dead, keep fighting man, we live one more day!
That was exactly my first interpretation of this song. Like, I hope it's not just another illness, I hope it's the last.
@@toxendon Thanks man, I've been on remission for nearly a decade now :) the whole family has been better too! It was a dark time but, we made it through.
@@unicrondeth8698 yup, we'll get through the hardships no matter what.
This album came out at a really rough time for me.
In August my father and I lost our house in a fire. My cat went to live with other family. My girlfriend's anxiety disorder became crippling in October, to the point she couldn't leave the house. Shortly after my dad was re-diagnosed with cancer for the third time in three years, and it was stage 4 at this point. I had something wrong with my throat that I couldn't get diagnosed because I didn't have proper insurance. And finally my dad ended up passing in early December.
I'm not normally like this with music but this song in particular cut so deep for me and even now I still listen to it and struggle not to cry. This song is a masterpiece to me, and you guys are heroes.
I've been listening to this song and album countless hours in a deep depression I am facing in my early 30s.... and these guys just know how to keep someone going in life even when it feels so dark and gloomy like those dark snowy days...
Knowing that you're wishing that person to had cancer instead of killing themselves is so fcking sad. the feels man, the feels ~
What I got from this had me sobbing. I’d rather hear my friend is alive and that they are still here, but I am losing so many friends to suicide right now it’s just not fair. I’m just trying not justify one tragedy over another, or be deemed selfish, but damn. This one hurt and I felt it. I felt you and the pain and I felt the loss and emptiness of losing so many friends and family to other tragedies. And no one has the right answers.
That is exactly what Mike has said that Jon wrote these lyrics about.
What I've learned is that everyone (Yes, even the piece of shit that came to mind when reading "piece of shit") has their own struggle going on and sometimes there's that one thing pulling you back from making that final desicion to simply end the pain. Once you lose that one thing, it's the darkest place you'll ever be in. Can't criticize peole for not being able to handle it, but it never stops hurting when someone close to you loses that "one thing"
Damn, the closing track this album deserved ❤️ this album is so melodic and catchy… If only every band could pull off experimenting this way… 10/10 ❤️
This is the best Devil Wears Prada song i've ever heard.... wow
Last year I lost some people including my mom to cancer or other diseases. I want you to take a moment to realize everyone around you loves you. If you have a mother,father,brother,sisters,niece,nephew,uncles,aunts,cousins and friends and hell even a pet suffering from cancer or other diseases take this moment to tell them you love em. You never know what the future holds up and bring them positive vibes and prayers not negative energy and dark clouds.
This hits so deep the emotion is unreal
I can definitely say that after one listen that this is my new favorite album by TDWP
I’m honestly in awe of how Good this album is
Congrats on this guys you nailed it in every way 🖤
Same. They get better with age to me honestly.
Roots Above?
This song hits the feels so hard. Been batting cancer these last 2 years.
I’m getting heavy Loathe vibes for inspiration on this song. Rad.
Definitely! sounds like "Is it Really You" especially the last acoustic part, anyway both song are post-hardcore/rock, shoegaze
This got me completely unexpected, I am crying my eyes out 🥺❤️❤️❤️
This song is an absolutely perfect ending for this album. I cannot explain the level of emotion this brought out in me.
Probably my favorite song on the album.
This and twenty-five have me in the feels man. What an amazing album guys
Noise and time too🔥
holy shit...
man how lucky are we, to witness this album and it be so unknown to the masses currently... its special to alot of us I can tell. Thanks to Mike and Jeremy and the boys for crafting this masterpiece of an album. What a friday
This song has "stages". It makes us go through the same initial confusion of "what? you hope that it's cancer?", to then have us thinking why that is. Such an insane line until you get the context. So good it hurts. Brilliant stuff
This song accurately describes how I feel whenever I find out another one of my inspirations dies. I’d rather it be from something natural like cancer rather than depression and suicide. Everyone is so broken these days. Even those we truly believe are on top of the world.
Wow....... this one hits different, had it on repeat for hours all day. Everyday is a mental battle for me an not a single soul knows. I've been battling depression for over a decade an then I lost my mom 7 years ago rather suddenly 3 months after my daughter was born an it kinda broke me but I have to be there for her and my wife. I have to be the rock but some days are just ROUGH. As they say it best "I don't need anymore things I don't wanna talk about."
I know it's so difficult to talk about and you want to be strong for your wife and daughter and not burden anyone with how you feel. But think of it this way. With the way our society conditions us to be, it is so so brave for a man to say that he is depressed and that he's not okay. Talking about your struggles would not make you weak, to the contrary it would make you incredibly strong. You know what is best for yourself but I gently encourage you to talk to someone about this. I've been where you are and you don't have to suffer alone my friend. I'm very sorry for the loss of your mother and hope you can one day find relief from your pain
The evolution of TDWP has been one hell of a journey and I'm privileged to be there every step of the way.
I love everything about this song. I think the worst of myself but we all have our demons. Prada knows how to express theirs.
Man this song has made me tear up so much.
July 4th 2020, my 4 year old son was diagnosed with Leukemia. He had a lot of bruising and petechia on his body suddenly. We sent pictures to his primary care doctor. He called back and told us they were getting a room ready for him downtown at the main hospital and to take him in. My wife took him (COVID, could only be one parent).
I called my mom when my wife left and I told her these exact words. “I hope that it’s cancer”. I don’t know why I said that at all. (Maybe because we have not had the best of luck health wise in our family).
My wife called a couple hours later with an oncologist on speaker, and he said “with the blood results, it’s highly probably that it’s cancer”.
I lost it man. Cried all night. This song has hit me so hard. Thank you TDWP. Helps me feel not so alone in some dark thoughts that can happen to us.
Hey man.. my name is Hernán.. I'm from Argentina .. this is my band's page ... Can you please tell me if your son is better? My Daughter Camila was diagnosed with leukemia in 2017 .. she is very well now.. almost cured... So .. don't lose your hope... The kids are unbelievable strong .. more than us of course
I need a love button for this.
One of the best releases this year. What a journey that was. This song made me cry. Well done boys. ❤
Alpha Wolf PFP!!
This is the best metal song I have heard in a long time. Certainly this year. It’s heavy without need for a breakdown, it’s devastating, and it’s beautiful.
what a turn, this album is really a masterpiece 🥺
damn this is hauntingly beautiful...
3:44 I love when bands makes that acoustic, shitty ass background sound stuff. Silverstein does it too 💘💘
This is a very specific type of music I’m in love with, like emotional rock, lots of songs in that genre are pretty generic so whenever a unique and genuinely amazing song like this is made it’s like Christmas
Any other good songs you can recommend?
@@ensco7 you’re not ready - victims aren’t we all
One X - Three Days Grace
Hurt - Get scared
Orphan - Whitechapel
Dear Agony - Breaking Benjamin
I wish I could name more off the top of my head but even some of these don’t fully capture the specific feeling this song gives, emotional metal with big choruses is kinda specific and hard to find lol
AOTY on my list...
I was already super happy listening to the previous songs then this came in, the perfect closer. I had goosebumps all over. TDWP is more than capable of creating such a beautifully crafted song.
one of my fav song now ⚫
Didn't expect that ending, it's perfect! TDWP somehow reinvents their sound yet again! This album will be on repeat endlessly!
What a phenomenal way to close a great album!
This song broke my heart. Simple as that.
the best song on the album. so glad to see these guys pumping out awesome content.
Very good, very sad. Very feeling.
Easily one of the most metal songs to ever have been written.
Screw the screams and the djent and the kvlt. If the feeling hits, IT HITS. Album of the year for sure.
Perfect closing song to a yet another fantastic album.
I can't stop crying with this song... thanks for this album.
I don’t think I’ve ever been emotionally hit this hard by an album since Too Close to Touch’s album Haven’t Been Myself. Even though this song is probably about losing a loved one to cancer, somehow it still manages to break me down and reflect on a very dark, painful time in my life when I thought I’d never get through it. This album will and should be regarded as a timeless classic, for sure. Thank you, TDWP.
Its about losing losing a loved one and hoping its something typical, like cancer, than all the other bullshit today. Covid, suicide, od, etc.
En todo el album mis sentimientos se desbordaron.
Seguiré apoyándolos así como ustedes lo hacen conmigo 🤘🏼❤️
Hay que poner el disco completo en las sirenas de alertas sísmicas para que suene en todo CDMX 🥰🤘🏻
This hasn’t hit me as hard since holding absences last record the greatest mistake of my life. Never thought I’d hear an emotional record like that again.
Color decay, I’m lost to what I want to say. It’s a heavy album for me. Tugged on those heartstrings. I love you mom
My mom had breast cancer 6 years ago had to do chemo to no avail lost her breasts and thankfully survived I was 15 at the time to anyone with cancer or with a loved one with this evil disease never give up never lose hope ❤
RIP Jason David Franco. This song hit me hard today especially knowing the context. We lose our heros too often.
This song hit me the way Devil Walk God Walk by Oceana hit me. 10/10
Oceana birtheater represent!
Man that album is so good 🤘
Well that hit me like a truck. Wasn't expecting to cry this morning but here we are. Love ya guys ❤
These guys have now made me a fan. Have never gotten into them over the years but this album is a whole different beast. Great album
This hits pretty hard. I cried hard. Thinking about is some more and realising I used to say it to myself. During my depression I hoped i would get cancer instead of someone else, to save someone else the misery, because I didn't enjoy life at that time..
This timing is perfect. Thank you 💔
Holy shit
Comencé a escucharlos con THE ACT y en automático fije mi atención en esta banda, me pareció que tenían un potencial increíble, ahora con este álbum me puedo llamar a mi mismo un completo fan de la banda, fue mucho mejor de lo que yo anticipé, superó todas las espectstivas con creces. TDWP se convierte fácil en una de mis bandas favoritas de toda la vida, larga vida para ellos y que nos sigan trayendo estas joyas tan bien logradas
x2, me engancharon con The Act, y desde ahí todo lo que han sacado es tan lindo, tan completo. Siento que junto a otro par de bandas, siempre hacen cosas que quieren, su propia música.
@@grimoluden2693 justo eso, crearon su propio sonido y no intentabn imitar el de nadie más para poder subirse al trenecito del mame, lo chingon es que se nota el crecimiento y la evolución.
You need to check out deadthrone and 8:18
@@aldogarcia8242 No todo lo que sea "Maduro" tiene que ser bueno.
@@thedarkroy1794 entonces dices que no es bueno el álbum o como?
I have been with you guys since Plagues. Grew up with you. Album of the year!!! No question. WOW. All I can say is WOW!
TDWP never failed to delivered, This shit hit me deep!
this hits so fucking hard man. honestly having soooo many of my friends either OD or kill themselves is so fucking hard and everytime i go back to my hometown all my friends live in a hell hole and are all depressed on pills or drinking themselves to death. i hate going back home to PA. but it is something that reminds me to keep pushing everday and to get out of bed. i use that as motivation.
Играйте ещё 50 лет, вы лучшие в своём направлении и жанре👍👍👍👍👍 я вас обожаю, слушаю и плачу....
Да... Надеюсь, что ещё много раз порадуют своими альбомами. Никогда не разочаровывают
This is their best album.
Zombie is great, but nobody turned to zombies in their real life. And man I just don’t care about concepts.
They meant this shit.
What an emotional 🥲 song.
I have listened to TDWP off and on over the years, mainly because they have been one of my son's favorite bands. But this album has quickly become my new favorite LP to listen to, over and over. And "Cancer" tops the list. The lyrics hit so close to my heart, and the song sounds great. Fantastic!
Saw them last night. They are really just killin' it live. 😄🤘
Tears 😢❤
This song hits me so hard right now. I can relate to feeling like I have to many things I don't want to talk about weighing me down.
why do i feel like i just got punched in the gut? damn... bordering on tears here... this hurt..
So bloody good. This cuts deep.
Lyrics:
How routine it feels like
Like I fell through the floor
Crushed by another passing
It's all happened before
Still I'm not pretending
To know every story and every choice
I'm just some voice below
The background noise
I hope that it's cancer
And not something else
'Cause I don't need any more things
I don't wanna talk about
How could I think such a thing?
Who am I to say?
Daily devastation that I can't validate
What's wrong with you?
They'll ask about me
You're done, you're through
Still I'm not pretending
To know every story and every choice
I hope that it's cancer (I hope that it's cancer)
And not something else (And not something else)
'Cause I don't need any more things
I don't wanna talk about (Don't wanna talk about it)
I don't need an answer (I don't need an answer)
Care about Heaven or Hell (About Heaven or Hell)
I hope that it's cancer
So what does that say about myself? (About myself)
I hope that it's cancer
And not something else
'Cause I don't need any more things
I don't wanna talk about
Whenever people I know or whoever I look up to dies, I do hope that it’s something natural that took their life and not suicide or a devastating tragedy. This past year my girlfriends mom passed away after fighting stage 4 cancer for a year, it was a very hard time for us seeing the process. I barely have words for what happened, but I am glad that she is no longer with us because it was heartbreaking seeing her the way she was, and we know she’s in a far better place now. Her mother did a lot for me and I am forever grateful for the time I had with her. She passed away 3 hours after I saw her for the last time, we had our time to say goodbye to her. I don’t know what it’d be like if instead something else took her life where we didn’t get that chance. I know the song is about one of Jon’s idols passing away, but this is just a personal take of how this song would apply to our situation.
TDWP is truly underrated af, I have always appreciated their songs and growth over the years. Thank you for the journey lads.
Вы просто лучшие!!! ❤️❤️❤️Спасибо TDWP за этот невероятный альбом🔥 Каждая песня нравится по-своему, каждая на 10 из 10. Браво!
One of the best songs tdwp has ever wrote.
just damn..
Best band EVEERRRR i love u so much guys
what an amazing song! I can relate to these lyrics so much right now. been dealing with chronic illness for more than 20 years and in a major transition phase of my life, trying to start over from basically nothing- poor health, no money, no job, a literally and figuratively unhealthy living situation. its complicated and difficult.
lost my dad, who was by far my best friend in this world to cancer 3 months ago and now I dont have a person to share all the challenges of my life with. its too much for pretty much anyone to listen to. I rarely share it with anyone and when I do I feel bad for bumming them out. only my dad could relate bc we went through ALL of it side by side.
the best thing you can do for yourself, even if you're sick & in pain is to try to do whatever exercise you can. try to build whatever strength you can. take it slow. it does make a difference in how you feel about yourself. I also found taking a small amount of 'Food Grade' Diatomaceous Earth in water has helped more than anything else I've tried over the years with chronic inflammation, making light exercise more bearable.
Reminds me of the 28 Days Later theme; sad and nostalgic. I love it!
Interesting comparison. That ost is goated
Love the comparison
this whole album has been such a beautiful sonic and lyrical journey. songwriting is just next level and inspiring. the best work they've put out thus far. its remarkable how they keep outdoing themselves with each album release.
chills
best song on album
This album is such a great listen, easy to sing along with, and is so relatable. You guys have found your new sound and I cannot get enough of it. Been on repeat since release, goosebumps everytime. Been a fan since discovering y'all in '09
The answer is this: it says that it's better to die from cancer than from lack of hope.
I feel grown up when I hear this. :)
On a much lighter note.....I was listening to this at the gym (not paying much attention) so when the chorus came I thought "oh great Mike's got his heart broken and wishes she got cancer" 😂😂😂
Simply incredible.
Bro !!! Why the fuck am I balling my eyes out !!!😭
Literally the perfect ending the album. Had me close to tears at work.
The lyrics are pretty raw and heavy, but that guitar tone is what sets the stage.
I love This song it's so easy to play!
OMFG! Just perfect.
This hits hard. My mom lost 2 of her best friends to suicide. I’ve talked people off of it. I babysit for a lady. She got breast cancer while her son was 3. He’d would see he throwing up after chemo. He had to see his mom die. I’ve been to way too many funerals.
I want so badly to hear an acoustic version of this song.
This hit me so hard
Who's here crying at the club?
I've been praying and crying that they make music video for this...this has become my favorite Prada song and I've been listening to them since day one...from one Jon to another I love you guys and keep on rocking !
This song gives me chills.
Damn, guys.
I am addicted with this album❤️I have never been so happy and excited before.. This album and the way TDWP are heading I am seriously excited for their next and new sound
