Story behind the song
A song about drink basically. Musically 2 songs influence the most here: Tom Petty's 'Last Dance With Mary Jane' and Shawn Colvin's 'Sonny Came Home'. So you get a rougher verse and a smoother chorus, I think!
*Look out for forthcoming remix of this track in a more contemporary rock style!
Lyrics
There's a madman in my head
I think he's drinking
Ignoring what I said
It doesn't sink in
So if you hear him let me know
Tell him, tell him make him go
What did I just do
I wasn't thinking
There's no way I can get through
I see you're drinking
So if you don't mind let it flow
Tell him, tell him make him go
Hold out your hand
Close your eyes dear
I'll fill your glass again
There will be no fear
In our whiskey coloured world
In our whiskey coloured world
The world is spinnig round
I think I'm sinking
Are you gonna come with me
Or just keep drinking
Well I think I need to go
But then again I don't know
