I wanted to write you a love song
But couldn't make the words sound right
Listened to madness for inspiration
Hoping it'd give me some deeper insight
Couldn't come close to it's accuracy
Gently direct, and absolute

Can't tell the forest from the trees
No better summary for you and me
I got so lost in those eyes
Tell me what's it gonna take to set you free?


Wanted to write you a love song
Hoped to say everything you wanted to hear 
Turned out every word came out wrong
That's when it really became clear 

Sick of the forest sick of the trees
No escape for you and me
I got so sick of those fucking eyes
I think this time it's really enough for me


It's only madness
A paper moon,
Pinholes in the curtain of night
The only real madness 
Is keeping this fire alive

Leaving the forest leaving the trees
Walking away from everything
It's gotta end
It's gotta end

A Love Song (Afterlife)
