[Verse 1] I've played with soldiers since I was young Seas of plastic, a father's love Crumpled napkins and cheap balloons That burst before the guests have had their food
[Pre-Chorus 1] Comatose and so morose, a pale and heaving mess Your cousin's sneeze, an orange breeze will sweep away the rest Repressed
[Refrain] It's madness
[Verse 2] Held your sorrow in polished glass 'Knowledge borrowed will never last.' Foolish shadow, a leading man Who shoves the words in just because he can
[Pre-Chorus 2] Butter, please. Increasingly, I'm swallowing my voice Deeper still, a wish fulfilled, and you without a choice Rejoice
[Refrain] It's madness
[Outro (X15)] You won't stop telling me You can't stop memory Your voice is killing me You don't make sense
