lyrics

He’s going mad that’s what they’ll say
He’s been talking like he can’t believe the prayers we pray
He’s lost his mind and it’s been replaced
By a stranger to the world and the games they play

I think he’s going mad
I think he’s

going mad
going mad
going mad

I think the word I’m looking for’s insane
Repeating all my antidotes
Insisting they will make me whole
Denying all to roller-coast
Sympathizing with the ghosts I lust for

I’m feeling like the matter may be handled
At least absentmindedly skipped through
Book’s too boring to sit through
Unread words tend to fester
Make a way for disaster

He’s going mad that’s what they’ll say
He’s been talking like he can’t believe the prayers we pray
He’s lost his mind and it’s been replaced
By a stranger to the world and the games they play

I think I’m going mad (I think he’s going mad)
Oh going mad (I think he’s)

going mad
going mad
going mad

Y’all got me out here thinking I’m so great
Blushing like I’m redboned
Head up in the clouds like it’s ozone
Waving down the methadone
So I can ride up with the drones I hustle
I’m feeling like the matter wasn’t handled

At least unabashedly misused
Deicide was the issue
Unread words tend to fester
Make a way for disaster

He’s going mad that’s what they’ll say
He’s been talking like he can’t believe the prayers we pray
He’s lost his mind and it’s been replaced
By a stranger to the world and the games they play

Think I’m going mad (I think he’s going mad)
Oh going mad (I think he’s)

going mad
going mad
going mad

going mad
going mad
going mad

going mad
going mad
going mad

going mad
going mad
going mad

He’s going mad that’s what they’ll say
He’s been talking like he can’t believe the prayers we pray
He’s lost his mind and it’s been replaced
By a stranger to the world and the games they play

I Think I’m going mad (I think he’s going mad)
Oh going mad (I think he’s)

going mad
going mad
going mad
