(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad)
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad)
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad)
I, I can't get these memories out of my mind
And some kind of madness has started to evolve
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad) mm
And I, I tried so hard to let you go
But some kind of madness is swallowing me whole
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad) yeah
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad)
I have finally seen the light
And I have finally realized
What you mean
Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh
And now, I need to know, is this real love
Or is it just madness keeping us afloat?
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad) mm
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad)
And when I look back at all the crazy fights we had
It's like some kind of madness was taking control
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad) yeah
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad)
And now I have finally seen the light
And I have finally realized
What you need
Mm, mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad)
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad)
But now I have finally seen the end (finally seen the end)
And I'm not expecting you to care, no (expecting you to care)
That I have finally seen the light (finally seen the light)
And I have finally realized (realized)
I need your love
I need your love
Come to me just in a dream
Come on and rescue me
Yes, I know, I can't be wrong
And baby, you're too headstrong
Our love is
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad)
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad)
(M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m, mad, mad, mad)

The song "Madness" by Muse from their 2012 album, "The 2nd Law", reflects on the internal conflict of a person struggling with the intense emotions of love and the fear of losing it. The lyrics describe the singer's inability to forget about a past lover and how their feelings have evolved into madness that is consuming them entirely. The chorus questions whether the love they share is real or simply madness that is keeping them together.
The lyrics depict the emotional rollercoaster of a relationship, filled with crazy fights and passionate moments. The singer finally sees the light and understands what their lover needs from them. The song ends with a plea for their lover to come and rescue them, showcasing the singer's willingness to let go of their fear and surrender to the madness of their love.
Overall, "Madness" is a melancholic study of the turmoil of love and the madness that arises when one is unable to let go of a past lover. The lyrics are complemented by the haunting melody and somber piano chords, making the song a moving reflection on the intense emotional struggle that love can bring.
