Big Madness (Letra)
In the winter in a seaside boarding house
The killer swigs and reels ‘round his room
Telling how he made that weeping spinster kneel
Yellow light seeps through a fly-blown lampshade
Fading with the dawn
He yells and laughs, "they all wanted it.
It was easy, so how could it be wrong?"
Chorus:
5 am and the seas are boiling
5 am and the windows crack
5 am and my hands are on you
Big madness
Big madness
When i phone you just to hear your voice
Oh please, don’t judge me so
It’s just that i don’t think i’ll rise again
Till i’ve seen how low i can go
Next springtime when i’m gone for good
And you struggle to find the words cruel enough
Through all these dying continents
My stupid laughter will be heard–chorus
Big madness
