My Madness

A stranger stares from a mirror, what does she see?

A marble, moon faced husk of who I used to be

Empty, empty, empty face, brush my teeth and wash my face

Pull the door in with a click, zip my coat up to the neck as I begin to descend.

Summer Hill in springtime boasts steeples in its skyline and all across the city, painted ladies sitting pretty

Wish I was sipping silly and didn't give a shit like the days gone by.

Seagulls flock and fly against a pink and purple twilight, my boots are wearing thin, must be the walking that Ive done

I don't know where I'm going but you know I'm going down to the depths of us all.

I touch my fingers to my lips. I pretend it could be your kiss.

Ive felt the force of your focus, don't think I haven't noticed

Or maybe its my madness, it could be my madness, maybe its my madness, maybe its just me.

I have for you a heavy chest, a heavy chest of thoughts

Cant be everything, time comes for any fruit to fall.

Are we ripe in dreams or do I rot beneath, beneath us all.

Am I so far gone? Am I ever coming back? Could you reach if you tried and stretched your fingertips?

Ive a lot on my mind and its murdering my time when all I think of is you.

And I know I'm no one special, Ive known that all along

They're playing sand castles, build you up to knock you down

Its just the way it goes, and when it comes around, don't act like you don't know.

I touch my fingers to my lips. I pretend it could be your kiss.

Ive felt the force of your focus, don't think I haven't noticed

Or maybe its my madness, it could be my madness, maybe its my madness, maybe its just me.
