You Drive Me Mad

But then when my back is turned
You lit the match to which I was burned
I asked you a simple why but still you continued to lie
So now very soon you’ll see the revenge which will come from me
You should’ve been straight from the start
But instead you went and broke my heart

You drive me mad, you drive me so damn crazy
Feel like I’ve been had, I’m so mad over you

You needed me, I needed you
What happened? I reaaly wish that I knew
So sad to see you leaving me
I can’t believe this nightmare has come true

You drive me mad, you drive me so damn crazy
Feel like I’ve been had, I’m so mad over you

I’m sure that soon the day will come
When you’ll be crawling back on your knees
Although its course may change sometimes
The rivers always do reach the sea

You make me mad, you make me so damn crazy
Feel like I’ve been had, I’m so mad over you

Someday soon, not long from now
You’ll be forced to take a sacred vowel
Your fakeness will release all your friends
Alone you will be left to fend
You’ll think the whole damn world is wrong
You’ll beg someone to hear your sad song
You’re choosing the hardest way to see
That you can’t find no better than me

You drive me mad, you drive me so damn crazy
Feel like I’ve been had, I’m so mad over you

Someday soon, not long from this day
You’ll be forced to find a better way
Your fakeness will release all your friends
Alone you will be left to fend
You’ll think the whole damn world is wrong
You’ll beg someone to hear your sad song
You’re choosing the hardest way to see
That you can’t find no better than me

Analysis: The last of a year-long deluge of acoustic-powered songs that started the previous summer, this song gets a bit ambitious with the chord changes and musical tangents. Still, it is fun and interesting.
