[Intro]

At night I’m a mad man, by day I’m a sad man

[Verse 1: Gristle]

It’s three AM and I can’t take my hand off this knife

I’m scared and alone, and all I wanna do is die

My night was filled with horror, my day filled with pain

I’m really on the border of going fully insane

I’m in my car for my, my morning drive

I pull up next to a motherfucker with that look in his eye

He sped up and cut me off

So I decided this piece of shit had to fuckin’ die

I don’t know what happened

I snapped and so I followed him to his work, knocked him out

And my car, I threw him inside

Brought him to my house and drew the same knife

I kissed it before cutting him open, side to side

Covered in blood I freaked out, bagged up his insides

Gotta grab the bleach, before the blood, it fuckin’ dries

He smelled sweet like sugar, I can’t imagine the pain

It’s been done, I’m driven completely insane

Nobody told me the rush when you take your first life

I’m gonna take a second, and it’ll be mine

I draw my final breath in, and I take this knife

Let’s make this quick, I want my pain to die

[Chorus]

At night I’m a mad man, by day I’m a sad man

By day I’m a sad man

At night I’m a mad man, by day I’m a sad man

By day I’m a sad man, by day I’m a sad man

[Verse 2: xMINUSx]

I find myself again, in a scary situation

Once again, I’ve done something that I truly wish I hadn’t

Can’t wash the filth off, my sins burnt in my skin

I can’t escape my evil deeds

And my obsessions and compulsions too often lead me

I wish I had any sense of control, but I don’t think I do

At night in the dark my thoughts compel me

The guilt and misery linger, my days are full of pain

Choke it down, bury it away and try to hide all my shame

As I lay in this bed, her body lies next to me

So cold, so still, saddest thing I’ve ever seen

I have the urge, and so I pushed her down the stairs, no goodbye

So fully unexpected there’s no way she could have seen it coming

As she laid at the bottom in a tangled mess of limbs choking for air

Life slowly left her, tears running down her face, into her hair

She looked up at me, although she couldn’t speak

I knew all she wanted to know was "Why? Please tell me"

I wish I had an answer, but I don’t and I’m sorry for that

My regret was immediate and it remains constantly intact

And even though her body reminds me of the horrible things I’ve done

I still love her, so I’ll keep her next to me while I load this gun

Put it up to my head and feel the weight in my hand

I can hear the rain outside, I can feel the aching deep inside

I’ll pull the trigger, end my reign of terror, let me die

[Chorus]

At night I’m a mad man, by day I’m a sad man

By day I’m a sad man

At night I’m a mad man, by day I’m a sad man

By day I’m a sad man, by day I’m a sad man

At night I’m a mad man, by day I’m a sad man

By day I’m a sad man

At night I’m a mad man, by day I’m a sad man

By day I’m a sad man, by day I’m a sad man

By day I’m a sad man
