Beautiful Madness - Bell X1

How good is this song?

"Give me an opinion
'Cos I don't have one
I'll agree with you if you're right
I always know where you're coming from
But I've never been there
I have to steal from you when you write

Your beautiful madness
My beautiful grief
Your dreams are my torture
Your dreams my relief

I'll give you an opinion
'Cos I just found one
You won't agree with me out of spite
I lay siege to your fortress
But you'll never give in
No, you'll just change your mind

Your beautiful madness
My beautiful grief
Your dreams are my torture
Your dreams my relief

You're mad to burn mad to fly mad to be saved
I stumble through the darkness looking for the day
Fabulous yellow roman candles explodes like spiders across the sky
And in the sparkling of the day we all go...

Mad to burn, mad to cry, mad to run and mad to fly, your mad to burn and mad to
die, mad to stay away, your mad to run and mad to die, your mad to run away, ya"

i think they're better without rice...he's better on his own. Two great acts the way they are

I love this song thanks to the "On The Road" quote. Fell in love with it many years ago.

They are some smart men.

I love this song. They have such a gift with words, and Paul is just plain amazing anyway :)

my dream named itself last night - my beautiful madness

[papernicolas3]

I think this talks about Damien... Bell X1's singer always admired him and was sad when he quit the band. This feels like that kind of statement.

[joelsamuel]

yep pieces of jack in this song but then he did influence many and many him ,all connected ....jack was one of a kind though lol ,on the road so fun

[Yelvy1980]

Good point tanml34 never noticed that before. is this song about keroauc. because "Fabulous yellow roman candles explodes like spiders across the sky" is a quote from near the start of "on the road"

[tanml34]

in part they are quoting jack keroauc when he said the ones for him were the mad ones ....mad...i hear jack in this song ..thanks boys xx
