Madness
Freestyle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The madness is creeping in
Intoxicating with its scent
My mind numb, my head spins
Memories coming with each breath

Drowning in who you were
Yearning for who you are
Drawing in a breath
Can't help but feel you in my heart

Once perfect
Once loved
Once yours
Once mine
My fault
My collapse
The anguish
The madness
Is creeping in

Your warmth beside me
Your breath caressing
I'd never let you go
But where's the feeling

I lost you, but I need you
I wish for you
But I wonder if I had you
Maybe you had me

Once perfect
Once loved
Once yours
Once mine
My fault
My collapse
The anguish




The madness
Is creeping in
