lyrics

how many trains on a railway system?
how many lies have i told?
how many times did i not listen?
how many coughs in a cold?
how many times did i get away with the truth

i've been waiting on the edge of your madness
i've seen sadness in your eyes
you were overcome by grief and despair
it's not fair, but it happens all the time

i ignored it, of course
pretended it wasn't there
this is all from the mouth of the horse
i swear that it's sincere
but, to be honest, it's not exactly true

i've been waiting on the edge of your madness
i've seen sadness in your eyes
you were overcome by grief and despair
it's not fair, but it happens all the time

i don't need glasses, i've got twenty-twenty eyesight
sometimes i choose, sometimes i lose, but i'll be alright
i'm waiting for a sign, i'm waiting for a twitch
i know you've got my back
but i've still got an itch to scratch

i've been waiting on the edge of your madness
i've seen sadness in your eyes
you were overcome by grief and despair
it's not fair, but it happens all the time

so tell me what motivates you
tell me what you think i should do
tell me how i can just sift through all your lies

i've been waiting on the edge of your madness
i've seen sadness in your eyes
you were overcome by grief and despair
it's not fair, but it happens all the time
