The Jane Austen Argument

Maintain the Madness
I went to New York and paid lots of money
To stay in the silence and not play for anyone
I picked up a bar tab and drank myself stupid
I flirted with strangers just to feel attractive
I stood on a rooftop pulled into the skyline
The clouds started rolling as I started to say
Goodbye to my grandfather whos at home dying
The rain started in and I was left crying
Ive got to maintain the madness
Just so the stillness makes sense to me
And Ive got to keep the momentum
Rolling along so that no one can stop me
No one can drag me
Hoahhhoaaahohahoooome [or that's what it sounds like anyway xD]
And I went to San Francisco with my best friend
To sing in a bar full of gay men who wanted me
But they did not know me, they thought I sang pretty
I made love to the microphone so they would not feel so empty inside
On this wintery night
In this city of madmen and loners and stoners and lovers forgotten in favour of rotten misfortunes with money,
but I still went home alone
Ive got to maintain the madness
Just so the stillness makes sense to me
And Ive got to keep the momentum

Rolling along so that no one can stop me
No one can drag me
Hoahhhoaaahohahoooome
But now Im here in Boston
In love with downtown crossings
And in this very room where some of my favourite songs have been written
Im writing this one to sing and remember these days in December
I have surrendered
Im not pretending to stay still,
To stay still
And so next week Ill go to Iceland
But then on to London
And into the arms of my favourite stranger
But then onwards cos I cannot, I will not, I will not
I cannot, I cannot, I will not, I will not
I cannot, I will never stop
Oh Im maintaining the madness just so the stillness makes sense to me
And Ive got to keep the momentum
Rolling along so that no one can stop me
No one can drag me
Hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoaooome
Hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoah hoaooome
