Thrice

Thrice - Madman lyrics

Our course is coarsely plotted

On a map of shoddy dreams,

But hindsight will reveal

Time's moving faster than it seems.

Maybe I'm just selfish,

I've got nothing left to give.

I'm still a foolish boy,

I've got a lifetime left to live,

And I was swinging like a madman,

Not quite sure of what I felled,

And I might never understand

Exactly what it was I'd held,

And now I watch the sun descending

From the weathered gravel roof,

And I recall the sky once told me

That all lies lead to the truth.

So I'll look the other way,

And I'll turn a deafened ear,

And I'll talk of distant lands,

Pretend I was never here.

Reality beads on my skin

Like a slicker in the rain,

But now I feel it soaking in

And I begin to feel the pain.

I fight the urge to run to you,

This is how it has to be.

We've gotta step away right now,

We're just too close to see,

And I was swinging like a madman,

Not quite sure of what I felt,

And I might never understand

Exactly what it was I'd held,

And now I watch the sun descending

From the weathered gravel roof,

And I recall the sky once told me

That all lies lead to the truth.

So I'll look the other way,

And I'll turn a deafened ear,

And I'll talk of distant lands,

Pretend I was never here,

And I'll look the other way,

And I'll turn a deafened ear,

And I'll talk distant lands,

Pretend I was never here
