Polar Vortex

If I wake before the sun rises I remember stories old Told to me by my mother's voice As the sky it turns from blue to gold She told me of the day she learned That madness is a man, oh Madness is a man among us, oh And she let the madness in Like any other man I have a code And hold my friends to higher standards But out on Ellen's Quay a new crop of kids Every year with louder voices Well, trying to reach them Is like sewing up a geyser 'Cause madness is a man, oh Madness is a man among us, oh They will let the madness in And then there are those Who can make time stop Crush the future into present Your job, your house, your family Turn to dust in an instant And a single word From your lover's voice Says madness is a man, oh Madness is a man among us, oh You will let the madness in --- Polar Vortex - Owen Pallett
