Love In The Asylum

A stranger has come

To share my room in the house not right in the head

A girl who's mad as a bird doomed

Shot down from heaven's bed

Her arms once feathered can carry her no more

The oceans have disappeared

May I be her refuge in the envy of the word

Each time

I hold her near

Love in the asylum

Bittersweet kiss

Come to me stranger

Rid me of this

Through delusive light on the bouncing walls

In trenches too narrow to share

Dying men of madness roar

Of burdens too great to bear

On madhouse boards worn and thin

By my walking tears

In the light of her arms she takes me in

And the walls disappear

Love in the asylum

Bittersweet kiss

Come to me stranger

Rid me of this

Love in the asylum

Bittersweet kiss

Come to me stranger

Rid me of this

Love in the asylum

Bittersweet kiss

Come to me stranger

Rid me of this

Love in the asylum

Bittersweet kiss

Come to me stranger

Rid me of this
