Madman — текст песни (Thrice)

Our course is coarsely plotted
On a map of shoddy dreams,
But hindsight will reveal
Time`s moving faster than it seems.
Maybe I`m just selfish,
I`ve got nothing left to give.
I`m still a foolish boy,
I`ve got a lifetime left to live,

And I was swinging like a madman,
Not quite sure of what I felled,
And I might never understand
Exactly what it was I`d held,
And now I watch the sun descending
From the weathered gravel roof,
And I recall the sky once told me
That all lies lead to the truth.

So I`ll look the other way,
And I`ll turn a deafened ear,
And I`ll talk of distant lands,
Pretend I was never here.

Reality beads on my skin
Like a slicker in the rain,
But now I feel it soaking in
And I begin to feel the pain.
I fight the urge to run to you,
This is how it has to be.
We`ve gotta step away right now,
We`re just too close to see,

And I was swinging like a madman,
Not quite sure of what I felt,
And I might never understand
Exactly what it was I`d held,
And now I watch the sun descending
From the weathered gravel roof,
And I recall the sky once told me
That all lies lead to the truth.

So I`ll look the other way,
And I`ll turn a deafened ear,
And I`ll talk of distant lands,
Pretend I was never here,
And I`ll look the other way,
And I`ll turn a deafened ear,
And I`ll talk distant lands,
Pretend I was never here.
