Erasure - Mad As We Are lyrics

Yes I drink away the hurt, and wishing that the ghost would fade away There was something more I had to do before you turned and walked away Promises broken easily Mad as we are, cannot fail, lives across my silver screen Soaks it out, burns a trail speed of light, hope flickering Pins and needles climbing up The spite of bold cathedrals ever high I'm not sure that I could cross this river, I'm not sure I want to try Shadows is that's left of you Mad as we are, cannot fail, lives across my silver screen Soaks it out, burns a trail speed of light, hope flickering Like moths in the night Promises broken easily Mad as we are, cannot fail, lives across my silver screen Soaks it out, burns a trail speed of light, hope flickering Mad as we are, cannot fail, lives across my silver screen Soaks it out, burns a trail speed of light, hope flickering Mad as we are, cannot fail, lives across my silver screen Soaks it out, burns a trail speed of light, hope flickering Like moths in the night
