Lyrics
0:22You can say I'm mad
0:23You can say I'm crazy
0:24But I'm only as bad
0:26As the maker who made me
0:27Sinner in the darkness
0:29Liar in the church
0:30Deaf man's silence
0:31The blind man's search
0:33Teardrop falling
0:34Memory recalling
0:35Ghost in your dreams
0:36And your secret recordings
0:38Mad man's matches
0:39Lump in your throat
0:40The pea under your mattress
0:42The hole in your coat
0:43Singer with the sound down
0:44Winner on the come down
0:46Poet in the overcoat
0:47Looking for a suntan
0:49On his birthday
0:50Prisoner on his first day
0:51Tired of the new wave
0:53I rise to meet you
0:56As your trust dissolves to shame
0:58Oh this innocence has turned and lost its way
1:03Retrace the footprints
1:06Off the path from which I came
1:09I'm the beast in you the beast in me
1:16Which way are we going
1:21The doors close in an hour
1:25You can say I'm mad
1:26You can say I'm crazy
1:27But I'm only as bad
1:29As the maker who made me
1:31Needle for the user
1:32The pain in your chest
1:33Beggar and the chooser
1:34The wicked man's rest
1:36Fear in the stuntman
1:37Sneer in the playground
1:38Bottle in the hand
1:40Of a dirty old drunk man
1:41Leaf falling
1:42Autumn calling
1:44Dark clouds forming
1:45I rise to meet you
1:48As your trust dissolves to shame
1:51Oh this innocence has turned and lost its way
1:56Retrace the footprints
1:59Off the path from which I came
2:01I'm the beast in you the beast in me
2:07Bite my nails
2:10Right down to the skin
2:12Where one trust ends
2:15And another lie begins
2:18Patch over holes
2:20In my weakened heart
2:23Which angels hold
2:26And devils pull apart
2:44I'm the beast in you
2:46The beast in me
2:47The bitterness the jealousy
2:49The part of you that never sleeps
2:56Are you my angel
3:01Will we walk all night through solitary streets
3:10And you hardly can imagine
3:13What you never had before
3:15And the reason that you're given
3:18Still leaves you wanting more
3:21And you hardly can imagine
3:23What you never had before
3:26And the reason that you're given
3:29Still leaves you wanting more
3:31I rise to meet you
3:34As your trust dissolves to shame
3:36Oh this innocence has turned and lost its way
3:41Retrace the footprints
3:44Off the path from which I came
3:47I'm the beast in you the beast in me
3:50The bitterness the jealousy
3:53The part of you that never sleeps
You can say I'm mad You can say I'm crazy But I'm only as bad As the maker who made me Sinner in the darkness Liar in the church Deaf man's silence The blind man's search Teardrop falling Memory recalling Ghost in your dreams And your secret recordings Mad man's matches Lump in your throat The pea under your mattress The hole in your coat Singer with the sound down Winner on the come down Poet in the overcoat Looking for a suntan On his birthday Prisoner on his first day Tired of the new wave I rise to meet you As your trust dissolves to shame Oh this innocence has turned and lost its way Retrace the footprints Off the path from which I came I'm the beast in you the beast in me Which way are we going The doors close in an hour You can say I'm mad You can say I'm crazy But I'm only as bad As the maker who made me Needle for the user The pain in your chest Beggar and the chooser The wicked man's rest Fear in the stuntman Sneer in the playground Bottle in the hand Of a dirty old drunk man Leaf falling Autumn calling Dark clouds forming I rise to meet you As your trust dissolves to shame Oh this innocence has turned and lost its way Retrace the footprints Off the path from which I came I'm the beast in you the beast in me Bite my nails Right down to the skin Where one trust ends And another lie begins Patch over holes In my weakened heart Which angels hold And devils pull apart I'm the beast in you The beast in me The bitterness the jealousy The part of you that never sleeps Are you my angel Will we walk all night through solitary streets And you hardly can imagine What you never had before And the reason that you're given Still leaves you wanting more And you hardly can imagine What you never had before And the reason that you're given Still leaves you wanting more I rise to meet you As your trust dissolves to shame Oh this innocence has turned and lost its way Retrace the footprints Off the path from which I came I'm the beast in you the beast in me The bitterness the jealousy The part of you that never sleeps
