Lyrics

I couldn't sleep last night, for thoughts buzzed in my head
thoughts that filled my soul with an unfathomable dread,
what if I'm not the person that I set out to be?
What if I cannot do the things that mean the world to me?
And what if the best life has to give lives only in my dreams?
My mind is trying to lose itself, won't somebody help me?

The night fills me with terror, a terror all too real
One that would shake the fabric of your soul, were you to feel
Have I enough to make my life a glorious comedy?
Or does my substance fall too short to allow me to be me?
And will it, in turn, make my life a mundane tragedy?
Will it, in turn, make my life a mundane tragedy?

Am I a monstrous charlatan like everybody else?
Would I not know if I was? Do I not know, myself?
The vultures circle my head, I think I'm cracking up
The nightmares only come to me when I have woken up,
and people are a nightmare, oh they will be my death,
they make me dead in the pit of my soul just like them,
just like them, just like them
just like them, just like them

The night fills me with terror, a terror all too real
One that would shake the fabric of your soul, were you to feel
Have I enough to make my life a glorious comedy?
Or does my substance fall too short to allow me to be me?
And will it, in turn, make my life a mundane tragedy?
Will it, in turn, make my life a mundane tragedy?

It's crumbling down, it's crumbling down,
it's all crumbling down
They're picking at my bones and, oh, my blood drips from their mouths
There's evil in the cities, there's evil in the streets
is that evil external, or does it come from me?

The night fills me with terror, a terror all too real
One that would shake the fabric of your soul, were you to feel
Have I enough to make my life a glorious comedy?
Or does my substance fall too short to allow me to be me?
And will it, in turn, make my life a mundane tragedy?
Will it, in turn, make my life a mundane tragedy?

A Glorious Comedy

The Madding Crowd are a psychotropic Glam-Punk 4-piece from the council-neglected cauldron of north Manchester, England. They formed in 2010 with brothers Ben and Dominic Corry on vocals and guitar respectively, and their cousin Claud Corry on bass, a nucleus that has stood firm since. In 2018, after a 2-year hiatus the band returned with the mercurial Sam Smith on drums.  
Their sound is ever-changing and driven by their lives and their world. With influences from Punk, Glam, Rockabilly, 50s Pop and Psych among others, every song is different to its predecessor. That is not to say the band don't have a specific vision. Every lyric is meticulously thought out, every aspect of their aesthetic is painstakingly considered to create something beautiful. If The Madding Crowd are doing something you can bet there is a reason for it.   
The band have released four EPs - including 2016's critically-acclaimed 'The 78th Bridge on the Rochdale Canal' - 2 singles and a short film. Their new single 'You Give Us Hope' is the precursor to the compilation album 'The Mowers Dies With Them', released 9/11/18. The album is a collection of every studio recording The Madding Crowd have ever made, re-mastered by Sam and containing some never-before-heard material.  What lies ahead for The Madding Crowd is simple - all or nothing. Either way they will die in a blaze of glory, because that's just what they do. Whatever happens, it's going to be a riotous, beautiful adventure.  Stop the Jacquard Loom
