Madness on the Line

You caught me by surprise Our pages seem the same On some crooked street at city's door Where it only seems to rain Not enough of the good stuff And too much cheap cocaine But you caught me by surprise I guess we'll meet again You ever wondered where the ego sits When it only hears applause? And may you see the lights for what they are Another losing cause And the truth you seek will find you And leave you wanting more Well just remember what it's for And treasure to the core Always the one to rely on Always the one to forgive Dead ends and darkness But reason to live Your answers on a postcard And another breadcrumb trail I've got madness on the line And thunder in my sails Sins of the red Yellow and blue Discouraged at first But who am I to refuse? A momentary flicker In a universal sky I've got madness on the line Without a reason why Without a reason why Without a reason why Madness on the line --- Madness on the Line - William The Conqueror
