The Green Pajamas

I Have Touched Madness

I broke down and I broke up
So far down I couldn't get up
You saw me fall and you saw me crack
I have touched madness
And I don't want to go back

I didn't want you to see me that way
Spiraling backwards through the day
Thoughts in formation for attack
I have touched madness
And I don't want to go back

Oh my love what would become of me?
Oh my love without your company
Only love, your love alone, carried me home

Two Japanese girls spitting rain
Bottled and broken by my pain
I'm spitting fire and breathing flack
I have touched madness
And I don't want to go back
