The Madness of Roland

Alan Griffiths, Roland Orzabal

[Verse 1]
We are sensual, low self esteem
From the way you operate like a machine
Temperamental, you sometimes break down
You should try to all survive, close to the ground

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Why am I often in pain?
Why is my brain not like other people's brain?
I see you
I can see who you are

[Chorus]
I can see you
I can see who you are
Can you see me, see who I am?
Do you know me?
Do you know what I like?
Do you understand?

[Bridge]
Hands raised to heaven with a boy against the world
Your father was a preacher, you aren't the son of man
The son was always there though, he was looking for someone
With whom to share his twilight years
The son was always there though, he was looking for someone
With whom to share his twilight years

[Verse 2]
My career is so surreal
Can we renegotiate part of the deal?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Why am I often in pain?
Why is my brain not like other people's brain?
I can see you
I can see who you are

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Why let the train take the strain?
How does the man in the moon know my name?
I see you
I can see who you are

[Chorus]
I can see you
I can see who you are
Can you see me, see who I am?
Do you know me?
Do you know what I want?
Do you understand?

[Chorus]
'Cause I see you
I see who you are
Can you see me, see who i am?
Do you know me?
Do you know what I'm like?
Do you understand?
