The Dawn Retreat – He’s Quite Mad, You Know Lyrics

Artist: The Dawn Retreat
Song: He’s Quite Mad, You Know

Where were you
When the spiders came down and grew
Envious of
All we knew

To be perfectly plain?
Where were you
When they decided to take our
Undeserved arms and legs and

Wander away?
Wander away
You became
Ever, ever so generous

Living in this
Black wonderland
How could we let our
Anger get so far

Out of hand to throw
Every last pawn we had
Into a war in Arachnid Land?
And when did we learn to

Sit so well on this
Burning carousel?
You became
Ever, ever so generous

Living in this
Black wonderland
You gave us shelter
Shelter from the rain

Almost as though you didn’t notice
I have been burning, I’m burning
I’m burning alive
We watch the pieces fall

And like clowns at funerals, this
Camera strolls us
Right through fields of red
We forget all the rules

They’re pyrite; made for fools
So we forget
Every word we said
The butterflies with bat-like wings

And hollow eyes give me the creeps
And I know that I can’t stop it
The bluebirds sit and wonder why
The blackbirds circle

Waiting for us to die
I can’t stop it
You became
Ever, ever so generous

Living in this
Black wonderland
You gave us shelter
Shelter from the rain

Almost as though you didn’t notice
I have been burning, I’m burning
I’m burning alive
