Acromegaly from An Enemy by Sister City

There is an enemy in my body
I am under siege
What’s with my hands, what’s with my feet
Why am I growing

Why won’t you look at me
Like you did on the day we met
Why won’t you talk to me
Why aren’t you listening

There is an enemy on the artery
Leading to my brain
Imbalanced chemicals, not the man you’ve known
It’s out of my control

I became your abscess
Your neoplastis
I know you know what happened
But you still cut me from your head

There is an enemy (there is an enemy)
I’m not imagining
There is an enemy (there is an enemy)
Behind my face

There’s something primal
It’s out to get us all
And it will one day

So why won’t you look at me
When I just want to be your friend
Please come sit and talk with me
I know you’re listening
