Madness

[Intro]
In love I watched you change into a man
Mirrored in my skin you looked your best
And I would rather you stay innocent
Than you discovering who I really am

[Verse 1]
I would've worn a warning
If I knew what was wrong
But you discovered layers
That I knew nothing of

[Verse 2]
Convinced that you could save me
Took years to see the truth
That it had been imprinted
Set in rock start from youth (?)

[Verse 3]
There's a certain kind of madness
That just cannot be explained
Under sympathetic sadness
Beastly anger left untamed

[Verse 4]
There's a certain kind of pleasure
In seeing lovers squirm like snakes
It's how easily I measure
Just how much me you can take

[Bridge]
I really tried to tell you
Run away whilst free
While I try to uncover
What's really haunting me

[Instrumental]

[Verse 5]
I'd rush while bobbing under
Mouth open, bending knees
It's true what people tell you
About the apple and the tree

[Verse 6]
Did you consider leaving
When you saw her and me
Talking is charm intriguing (?)
Until I let you see

[Verse 7]
There's a certain kind of lover
Makes you question who you are
Makes you hand over your powers
Leave a bulging heart-shaped scar

[Verse 8]
There are certain kind of memories
That I don't know where to place
Cannot shake, cannot pretend that
These are things I can erase

[Bridge]
I do not understand you
Though grateful for your love
The demon is an old friend
You cannot free me of

(Oh)
[Instrumental]

[Verse 9]
There's a certain kind of lover
Makes you question who you are
Makes you hand over your powers
Leave a bulging-heart shaped scar

[Verse 10]
There are certain kind of memories
That I don't know where to place
Cannot shake, cannot pretend that
These are things I can erase

[Outro]
I do not understand you
Though grateful for your love
The demon is a old friend
You cannot free me of
