Madness
written by: Sarah McLachlan
Lyrics
Brings me to my knees
I can sense a madness
It lingers on the breeze
Rests upon my shoulder
And lights along my spine
Resurrecting all my fears
By deceiving what is mine
And what is really mine
And what’s only a matter of time
In the moments of clearness sometimes I can understand
(subtlety is washed away by the tears in time)
The feeling of your calmness oh I need it so
(the sea corrodes the flesh to bone)
But it in the moments of madness no-one’s near my side
(the pain of waiting for so long in vain)
There’s nothing I can say that can change things now
(sacrificed the heart is turned to stone)
I took it as a message
I see it clearly now
Desolation everywhere
All my thoughts are…?
Seeps into my conscience
Sadly unrefined
Resurrecting all my fears
By deceiving what is mine
And what is really mine
And what’s only a matter of time
In the moments of clearness sometimes I can understand
(subtlety is washed away by the tears in time)
The feeling of your calmness oh I need it so
(the sea corrodes the flesh to bone)
But it in the moments of madness no-one’s near my side
(the pain of waiting for so long in vain)
There’s nothing I can say that can change things now
(sacrificed the heart is turned to stone)
