LAYLA'S   WORLD

BEING IRRELEVANT BITS AND RELEVANT PIECES OF LETTERS FROM LAYLA,
WHO DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT WHAT YOU THINK UNLESS YOU'RE REAL AND COOOL


madness
how can you keep it in
creativity
how can you let it be
desire
how can you ignore the fire
are you retarded
by choice or by fate
is it your religion
that destroys your faith
is it your fear
that builds up pride
that leads you to
suicide

madness
falling down like rain
its fucking madness
if you're not insane
then maybe I am
maybe you can tell me
what's going on in your brain

when you see a child crying
do you want to scream
at the world or at the child
do you know what I mean?

when you see a child dying
do you feel hurt or mean
do you feel your life
or do you just dream

when you see people fighting
do you cry or cheer?
when you see an accident
do you slow down there?
do you want to help
or do you just want to see
does your smile hide you or show you
does anyone really know you?
do you fake your happiness to hide your sadness
do you know your madness?

madness
how can you deny it
creativity
are you scared to try it?
desire
how can you walk by it
are you limited
by choice or by fear
is it your tradition
to pretend you care
is it your greed
is it your blindness
that strips you of
your kindness

madness
falling down like rain
world full of madness
if you're not insane
then maybe I am
maybe you can tell me
what's going on in your brain

when you are sleeping
what do you dream?
is it what you do
is it what you mean?

when you are awake
what do you dream?
is it far from you
have you ever seen
what is real?
have you ever felt
have you ever felt
have you ever felt
do you feel?

madness
hiding deep inside you fear
madness
ignoring the heart you hear
madness
pretending that you don't feel
madness
pretending pretending's real
madness

what a waste of a life
you grind down the knife
of passion until it's just pain

what a hopeless perspective
your tense is rejective
and your apathy is is so plain

in your self-condemnation
you repress all sensation
until your dead but for a brain

that is lost in confusion
a plastic illusion
that you try to pass off as sane

it's fucking madness
falling down like rain
world bleeding madness
if you're not insane
then maybe I am
maybe you can tell me
what's going on in your brain

since you're afraid to get undressed
go get blessed



Madness
(Get Blessed)
