Lyrics
After The Madness
VERSE
Everyone has had a time or place of darkness
When you feel everything will never change
Can?t escape what?s passed but cannot move forward
Stuck outside in the pouring rain
CHORUS
It?s not until after the madness the storm calms down
Life seems more positive than that lonely lost and found
VERSE
The thunder roars but your mind?s hearing voices
You cannot turn off the devil?s call
Some stay positive, while some can?t hide in silence
Some run right into their own self built wall
CHORUS
Cause ya know, nothing?s definitive, but some things are for sure
Like after the Madness one knows what one can endure
BRIDGE
Yes, say that it?s true, say it?s alright to be mad once in a while
As long as you can set yourself free
But if options are nill and you?re questioning still
Everything?s far from clear. Don?t be afraid of learning to see
VERSE
Everywhere you go you know they?ll be something familiar
Tugging at you while you choose to leave or stay
But if you pass and choose to settle for the safety
You?ll ask yourself What if I?d found my way
CHORUS
It?s not until After the Madness the storm calms down
Life seems more positive that that lonely lost and found
Cause ya know nothings definitive but some things are for sure
Like after the madness one knows what one can endure
