Story behind the song
This is simply about Jealousy- the green eyed devil- a brief and sensless madness that can cause someone to go insane for a short while and even commit murder-
Lyrics
A BRIEF MADNESS
ROUND AND ROUND , HEAD ALL A SPIN
DIZZY SITUATION , NEVER TO GIVE IN
A SOLUTION IN PROGRESS , A DEEP ROOTED THOUGHT
ANSWERS WE’VE ALREADY HEARD
BUT NOT WILLING TO BE TAUGHT
NO SECURITY , THE DOWNFALL , PARANOIA
JEALOUSY , THE CANCER THRIVING ON HUMANITY
AN ENDLESS CHAIN BROUGHT TOGETHER
TO OPPRESS THE TRUE
THE BLADE OF DISTRUST , CUTS THROUGH THE HEART OF YOU
A LOSS OF UNDERSTANDING TAKEN TOO FAR
ABUSED IN A STATE OF MORAL MIS -CONDUCT
JEALOUSY , IT’S A CANCER
SPREADS THROUGH YOUR BODY IN A FLASH
REVENGE , NOT ALWAYS THE ANSWER
TAKE TIME TO THINK AND DON’T BE RASH
CHEATED , ANOTHER link TO THE CHAIN
LIKE A SUMMONS TO COURT , ACCUSATIONS FLY
GUILTY FROM THE START , OUTCOME PERCEIVED
A LUST OF THE MIND , A CORRUPTION OF THOUGHT
“DRAINED”
ANGER , IT IS A BRIEF MADNESS
YOUR PERPETRATION OF DISTRUST
BUT WHAT CAN NEVER BE CURED
MUST BE ENDURED
THE GREEN EYED DEVIL LIVES ON
“YOUR JUST JEALOUS OF WHAT I’VE GOT
SO JEALOUS , STOP LIVING IN THE LIE”
JEALOUSY
