A stranger has come 
To share my room in the house not right in the head 
A girl who's mad as a bird doomed 
Shot down from heaven's bed 
Her arms once feathered can carry her no more 
The oceans have disappeared 
May I be her refuge in the envy of the word 
Each time 
I hold her near 
Love in the asylum 
Bittersweet kiss 
Come to me stranger 
Rid me of this 
Through delusive light on the bouncing walls 
In trenches too narrow to share 
Dying men of madness roar 
Of burdens too great to bear 
On madhouse boards worn and thin 
By my walking tears 
In the light of her arms she takes me in 
And the walls disappear 
Love in the asylum 
Bittersweet kiss 
Come to me stranger 
Rid me of this 
Love in the asylum 
Bittersweet kiss 
Come to me stranger 
Rid me of this 
Love in the asylum 
Bittersweet kiss 
Come to me stranger 
Rid me of this 
Love in the asylum 
Bittersweet kiss 
Come to me stranger 
Rid me of this
