Paroles
On the surface he seems sensible
But underneath the logic is crazy
Like a cat that walks with cruelty
Or a dog that always bites for no reason
I could feel the madness there
But I couldn’t see the streets for the houses
And all the lies and fantasies
Were suddenly malicious and dangerous
With every passing day you put me through
What have I done to you?
Is it any wonder that I never close my eyes?
Sisters of normality
Collapse into convulsions of laughter
Knuckle walking animals
Are swaggering and spilling their anger
And they’re almost walking upright
As they try to ape the madmen around them
But the slightest, kindest hint of love
Leaves them naked snorting like horses
If that’s what’s waiting for me on the ground,
I hope I never come down
Is it any wonder that I never close my eyes?
Here in this lullaby
We’ll leave them all behind
Thoughtlessly wasting time
We’ll be gone in the blink of an eye
Is this really where the story ends
For all those so called friends
Is it any wonder that they think I’ve lost my mind
If that’s what they think then fine
We’ll leave them all behind
Is it any wonder?
We’ll leave them all behind
Hearing these words of mine
Alternative Lyrics from Marks songbook (Dearest dead days):
On the surface he seems sensible
but underneath the logic is crazy
Like a cat that walks with cruelty
Or a dog that always bites for no reason
I could feel the madness there
but I couldn’t see the streets for the houses
And all the lies and fantasies
Were suddenly malicious and dangerous
With every passing day you put me through
What have I done to you?
Is it any wonder that I never close my eyes?
Sisters of normality
collapse into convulsions of laughter
Knuckle walking animals
are swaggering and spilling their anger
And they’re almost walking upright
As they try to ape the madmen around them
But the slightest kindest hint of love
Leaves them naked snorting like horses
If that’s what’s waiting for me on the ground
I hope I never come down
Is it any wonder that I never close my eyes?
Here in this lullaby
We’ll leave them all behind
Thoughtlessly wasting time
We’ll be gone in the blink of an eye
Is this really where the story ends
For all those so called friends
Is it any wonder that they think I’ve lost my mind
If that’s what they think then fine
We’ll leave them all behind
Is it any wonder?
We’ll leave them all behind
Hearing these words of mine
Traduction des paroles
Si c'est ce qui m'attend sur le terrain
J'espère que je ne viens jamais vers le bas
Est-il étonnant que je ne ferme jamais les yeux?
Ici dans cette berceuse
Nous les laisserons tous derrière nous
Perdre du temps sans réfléchir
Nous allons avoir disparu en un clin d'œil
Est-ce vraiment là que l'histoire se termine
Pour tous ces soi disant amis
Est-il étonnant qu'ils pensent que j'ai perdu mon esprit
Si c'est ce qu'ils pensent alors bien
Nous les laisserons tous derrière nous
Est-il étonnant?
Nous les laisserons tous derrière nous
Entendre ces mots de la mine
