MADI - Flares lyrics
Artist: MADI
album: Reprisal
Cut my hand on this funny thing
Scared of love, scared of wedding rings
Sheltered mind that sat inside a room
Words cluster into a bruise
Maybe I'm not insane, as the world accuses
Ruptured in my brain, baby I'm wretched
Toxic from the waist down,
It's a last embrace and baby I'm down the race
Like a tiger clawed by man
Sticks and stones got streaks of red
And while the day drips in the bed
I have nightmares in my head
Punctured me with a lethal dart
The white coats smile as they leave their mark
Only slept a moon since that time
Look outside to see who's survived
So why am I so afraid if the world refuses?
Locked inside my brain, mother I'm sickened
A fire from my leg down
It's a last embrace and baby i'm down the race
Like a tiger clawed by man
Sticks and stones got streaks of red
And while the day drips in the bed
I have nightmares in my head
Like a tiger clawed by man
Sticks and stones got streaks of red
And while the day drips in the bed
I have nightmares in my head
Scared of love, scared of wedding rings
Sheltered mind that sat inside a room
Words cluster into a bruise
Maybe I'm not insane, as the world accuses
Ruptured in my brain, baby I'm wretched
Toxic from the waist down,
It's a last embrace and baby I'm down the race
Like a tiger clawed by man
Sticks and stones got streaks of red
And while the day drips in the bed
I have nightmares in my head
Punctured me with a lethal dart
The white coats smile as they leave their mark
Only slept a moon since that time
Look outside to see who's survived
So why am I so afraid if the world refuses?
Locked inside my brain, mother I'm sickened
A fire from my leg down
It's a last embrace and baby i'm down the race
Like a tiger clawed by man
Sticks and stones got streaks of red
And while the day drips in the bed
I have nightmares in my head
Like a tiger clawed by man
Sticks and stones got streaks of red
And while the day drips in the bed
I have nightmares in my head
