lyrics

Just how deep in the skin can you get
Just how close to the bone can you go
Dear when I let you in I thought nothing was unsafe to show you
I’ve recycled the best of myself
And I find that I’m now someone different entirely
Maybe to please you but maybe it’s just something else
It could be fear; it could be sadness
It could be peering through your eyes to taste your gladness
It could be feeling through your skin; it could be wondering how you’ve been
It could be all that
Or it could be madness

But how lovely that you have stopped by
If you’ll have it please do stay for tea
I’ve got nothing to do so it’s really no bother to me
We can talk of your folks if you like
Is your sister still doing okay? If she’s not, can I help her? Or help you?
Or maybe you need something else
Was it your fear? Is it your sadness?
Have you been peering through my eyes to taste my gladness
Have you been feeling through my skin? Have you been wondering how I’ve been?
Well if you haven’t, maybe it’s madness

Or it could be hope; it could be yearning
It could be all the dirt within me finally turning
Giving up all that half life stuff; knowing I’ve finally had enough
Finding my gladness
Maybe it’s madness
