Erasure

Mad As We Are

Erasure


Yes, I drink away the hurting 
Wishing that the ghost would fade away 
There was something more I had to do 
Before you turned and walked away 

Promises broken easily, a-ha 

Mad as we are, cannot fail 
Lines across my silver screen 
Sorts it out, burns a trail speed of light 
Hope flickering 

Pins and needles climbing up the spine of bone 
Cathedrals ever high 
I'm not sure that I could cross this river 
I'm not sure I want to try 

Shadows is all that's left of you, a-ha 

Mad as we are, cannot fail 
Lines across my silver screen 
Sorts it out, burns a trail speed of light 
Hope flickering 
Like moths in the night 

Promises broken easily, a-ha 

Mad as we are, cannot fail 
Lines across my silver screen 
Sorts it out, burns a trail speed of light 
Hope flickering 

Mad as we are, cannot fail 
Lines across my blue screen 
Sorts it out, burns a trail speed of light 
Hope flickering 

Mad as we are, cannot fail 
Lines across my silver screen 
Sorts it out, burns a trail speed of light 
Hope flickering 
Like moths in the night
