ALANIS MORISSETTE LYRICS - Madness

"Madness"



I've been most unwilling to see this turmoil of mine

The thought of sitting with this has me paralyzed



With this prolong exposure to mirror and averted eyes

I've feigned that I've been waiting: such mileage for empathizing



[Chorus]

And now I see the maddness in me is brought out in the presence of you

And now I know the madness lives on, when you're not in the room

And though I'd love to blame you for all, I'd miss these moments of opportune

You've simply brought this madness to light and I should thank you

Oh thank you, much thanks for this bird's eye view

Oh thank you for your most generous triggers



It's been all too easy to cross my arms and roll my eyes

The thought of dropping all arms leaves me terrified



[Chorus]



I'd have to give up knowing and give up beaing right

You inadvertent hero, you angel in disguise



[Chorus]
