my brightest diamond – madwoman lyrics
dirty old clothes underneath her toes
fighting what she knows
so she throws it all into a big black pot
stirs it all up til the pot gets hot
with the hands of a beggar and the tongue of a thief
another crutch to bury her grief
madwoman in a straw house
madwoman in my house
and with the blood of bats and the tail of a mouse
madwoman in a straw house
and what she knows is the moon makes her mad
what she knows links the good with bad
but the faith she bought with a shiny dime
doesn’t seem to draw the line so
she made her own belief
that the truth was found in trees and things
but the x philosophy that she had grown
wasn’t enough to save her soul
madwoman in a straw house
madwoman in my house
and with the blood of bats and the tail of a mouse
madwoman in a straw house
but there’s one thing she did not try
and this one thing she cannot deny
it was a drowning notion that they gave
that could not supply her need
it was a haunting notion that she’d saved
but her peace could not be freed
madwoman
madwoman in a straw house
madwoman in my house
and with the blood of bats and the tail of a mouse
madwoman in a straw house
madwoman in my house
and with the blood of bats and the tail of a mouse
madwoman in a straw house
madwoman in my house
and with the blood of bats and the tail of a mouse
madwoman in a straw house
