Fountain

(album: Madness - 2022)

Impossible to find my hands relax
It hurts like I've been pushed or slapped
Sex is sad and
All the plans end, I've been on my own
Thinking on and on
It's a poison we pass on
With our eyes against the weapon
Cut me down and hold me tight
Love feels like a knife

It's a poison we pass on
Past is just some rusted weapon
Cut it down and try to hold on
Love feels like a fountain

I don't like it in my room
I don't like it in my room

Maybe I'm mean and try to hurt you
Explode and so do you
I be straight as an arrow
Then fall and drown in shadow
No, don't calm me when I speak
I will never be that weak

It's a poison that we pass on
With our eyes against the weapon
Cut me down and hold me tight
Love, it feels like a knife

It's a poison that we pass on
Past is some rusted weapon
Cut it down and try to hold on
Love feels like a fountain
