lyrics

Pavilion 1, Section 81
Your madness brought me there
madness that saved our sanity
nearly insane from a mundane world
one without questions or colors
one defined by rules from others.
It was you who snapped
like an acid trip, caused from pressure
you broke through
kept breaking through to the other side
and you brought me along
pavilion 1, section 81
a house of brilliant madness
acceptance of the different
not coping with the insanity of the sane
colorful characters
broken crayons discarded from the box
we saw
we saw the full spectrum, we saw it all
witnesses of brilliant madness and the depths
of brilliant sadness.
Thank you for reaching your hand out to me
showing me your secret place
the place of safety
we found ourselves in the place to be
out in the middle of the mad house yard
deep in the arms, of the cedar tree.
