You said it yourself
To convalesce from empty sorrow
Someone had to squeal
To dive to the bottom
You said I know
I know it's not your fault
Like wire around your bones

I take it I'm a mad man
But I would never squeal
I never said it was no good

The innocent will rest in the peace they've been given
Paintings will sleep on the floor
Build walls of lonely dreams as beauty fades
I can't take this any more

Lock yourself up like a bird in a cage
You sing but no one ever listens
How much were you paid to sell out the mad man?
Like a scientist or master of design
I knew exactly what I was doing

I heard of your disease
The shots of penicillin barely kept you alive

I am the clone
I dwell in silence
