In quiet moments I hear the noise Mad man's been here since I was a boy Mindless thoughts keep humming along Somebody's singing that endless song Keep looking for peace, but peace brings war Maybe it's war that I'm looking for I got no need for an enemy This mad man is a friend to me Step aside as I hear a voice Do not move if you have any choice I see no rope but I'm being pulled Caught in-between the king and the fool Held so tight that I lost control He used to say I never had it all If clarity is the enemy Why does it always look clear to me? I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I am a mad man I am a mad man I am a mad mad man I am a mad mad man I am a mad mad man I am a mad mad man I could not understand I have a mad mad plan If only I had patience for love I would have seen I'd always had enough I never had much patience for love I should have seen I'd always had enough But I am a mad man I am a mad man I am a mad man I am a mad man Find myself at the end of a day Lone man walking an endless parade And every one that passes me by Keeps me up if I look in their eye Each one I've held and loved before They never have what I'm looking for If I call you all my enemies I'll never know who's a friend to me I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I see a mad man I am a mad man I am a mad man I am a mad mad man I am a mad mad man I am a mad mad man I am a mad mad man I am
