A Temporary Madness
[Verse 1: Daniel Whittle]

The good time boys just wait in the back
While the good guys waste a game in the bag
Yeah, it's sorry to say
Sweet Plain Jane learned how to paint
Drinks champagne they send her way
Yeah, it's sorry to say
Sometime you reach the point
Where you think that you've found trust
Then you watch it slip away
In the night surrounding us

[Chorus 1: Daniel Whittle]
I've seen this city, it's a party full of vampires
I've seen this city, it's a party full of vampires looking for new blood
I've seen this city, it's dragging me down
I've seen this city, it's wearing me out

[Verse 2: Daniel Whittle]
He'd die to hide that he's just a sad mess
“Look at my cash, do you know who my dad is?”
This guy's got the most fascinating big lies we know
He turns his heart around to slay the town with all his friends
An empty man, a bitter oath to never love again

[Chorus 2: Daniel Whittle]
I've seen this city, it's a party full of vampires
I've seen this city, it's a party full of vampires looking for new blood
I've seen this city, it's dragging me down
I've seen this city, it's wearing me out

[Bridge: Daniel Whittle]
All I want is just something real
All I want is just something real
ALL WE WANT IS JUST SOMETHING REAL!
ALL WE WANT IS JUST SOMETHING REAL!
ALL WE WANT IS JUST SOMETHING REAL!
ALL WE WANT IS JUST SOMETHING REAL!

[Outro: Daniel Whittle]
The most impressive lies are seasoned with the truth
So when I say I'm doing fine
Just know I'm barely getting through
