When Insanity Fails
Copyright 2004 Mason Reed (ASCAP)

Dig me up and take me home
I’ve got a cold wind down in my bones
I’ve got a full moon to howl at alone
There’s a million pounds of pressure and the pressure’s gonna pop
There’s a million pounds of pressure and the pressure’s bound to pop
Take me down to the water
Every son, every daughter
You can hold me down ’till the bubbles stop
Take me down to the river
all you indian-givers
Hold me down ’till the bubbles stop

Somehow you make me everything I am
Somehow you make me crazy too
But you know I’d follow you all the way into town
You know I’d follow you all the way down
To the bottom of that bottle
I’d punch a hole in your wall

Take me down to the water
Every son, every daughter
You can hold me down ’till the bubbles stop
Take me down to the river
all you indian-givers
Hold me down ’till the bubbles stop

Then when insanity fails
When insanity fails
When insanity fails your last defense is me

She got up but she never got found
She got down but she never got found
She got in but she never got out
I never really thought about it
No I never really thought about it

Take me down to the water
Every son, every daughter

You can hold me down ’till the bubbles stop
Take me down to the river
all you indian-givers
Hold me down ’till the bubbles stop

Then when insanity fails
When insanity fails
When insanity fails your last defense is me
