You Mad?

They say we're all broken inside

Wearing bed sheets over our face is what we do best

Blending into the paradise we created;

A perfect place for puppets with stitched smiles to hold hands onto betrayal

Our hearts are kept in the same cage as the Lion who hungers for our misery

Together, we cower in fear

Like wilted roses waiting for the flood

To wipe out our precious delusions

We plead for the ocean to drown us in our sins

While the Devil waits to burn us in Hell for an eternity.

They said our paradise looked like a city in a war zone

We were all mad inside

Secretly shoving bombs down each others' throats

Watching the blood splatter on our bed sheets that we wear in vain;

Mad, mad, mad, MAD!

We've all gone mad!

Without even realizing it,

We've lost our balance at the tip of the edge

Plunging down the pit of insanity,

And so...

Our paradise came crashing down from the soldiers we created.
