Song meaning by Jon: "I'm talking about the anti-me. You can't go through life without disagreeing with people, I reckon that's a part of being an adult. I spent most of my life going, 'the worst thing that could happen to me is for someone to not like me'..why? What have I done? And then you realise 'right, you can't control everything'. People are gonna disagree with you, people are gonna agree with you...snd you've gotta let go control of that and just work out who you are and what you believe. As long as you think your morals are good and you're not hurting anyone, then if someone's got a beef with you, it's their fucking problem and you've got more control of that situation once you let go of control of that situation. That's one thing I've been trying to work on. I'm still failing".

Lyrics

Little cancer you've got the answer
It's a disaster for all to see

Now everybody's got it in for me 
Everybody's got a place to be
Everybody's got it in for me 
Everybody's got a place to be

There you go
Well it's broken now you own it
There you go
You'll be out there all alone

Just let it go

It's a total headfuck
Now they think you suck
Not gonna get stuck
Not what you think

Now everybody's got it in for me 
Everybody's got a place to be
Everybody's got it in for me 
Everybody's got a place to be

There you go
Well now, I'm not blaming no one
There you go
You can win this on your own

Because I thought I'd be alright
My ammunition was low
And I'll be charging it all night
But this bitch won't let it go

Won't let it go

It doesn't concern nobody else
But you don't care
You're gonna destroy the ones you tell
Odd(?) you dare
Doesn't matter who falls along the way
If you get your man
Even if there's no truth to what you say
You will make them understand, yeah

Little cancer, you've got the answer
It's a disaster for all to see

Now everybody got it in for me
Everybody got it in for me

Everybody's got it in for me
Everybody's got a place to be
Everybody's got it in for me 
Everybody's got a place to be

There you go
Well it's broken now you own it
There you go
You'll be out there all alone

There you go
Well now I'm not blaming no one
There you go
You can win this on your own

Just let it go
Let it go
Just let it go

Little cancer, got the answer
Little cancer, got the answer

Now everybody knows
