MADNESS REIGNS
(c)4/15/99 Ian Shires

The Day is done - all that's left is the closing down
can't we leave for tomorrow - what should be finished now
have we not worked hard - peeled skin worked these fingers to the bone
No it leaves me no comfort - as I walk off alone
oh watch out tomorrow - I'll be comin' to give a show
cause that's all that is left me - the empty charade
Madness reigns - in the land of the free and brave
Keep a firm grasp on your soul - for that's all you can save
Madness reigns - yes we're serving the chaos lords
See the twinkle in their eyes - turn into the flash of their swords

Impaled on the truth - and it pales by comparison
to the dream that still dances - in the back of my mind
have we not been strong - in the face of incredible odds
yes watch us keep laughing - at the jokes of the gods
Oh watch out tomorrow - I'll awake with that smile on my face
you'll see that I've lost my hold - in free fall I go
Madness reigns - in this world the ends are frayed
you can look back on the journey - to see where destiny's made
Madness reigns - yes we're serving the puppet kings
see the glint of their pearly whites - as they're pulling the strings

I stand before you with nothing to prove - nothing to lose
and the name I've made for myself says it all
oh watch out tomorrow - if you come I will put on a show
as I jump through the hoops of the day - I'll send my message clear
