Helen Sharp by Joe Iconis Lyrics

I try to focus on the work
But it's hell, but it’s hell
I try to not just go berserk
That is not going well

These days it's harder than it seems
To ignore, to ignore
That she's accomplished all my dreams
Then some more, then some more, then some more

Hee, Hee, Hee

I know that jealousy should not
Be allowed in my heart
Then I see a poster of her and I’ve got
To just rip it apart

I try to channel all this hate
Into good, into good
But whenever I go to create
It don't flow like it should
I wanna sing about hope
About faith
About loving and persevering

I wanna sing about trust
About time
About facing the things I'm fearing

I wanna sing about
Dreams that come true
About secreting what I'm after

I wanna sing
About me about you
Have the room filled with light and laughter

And I try my best to figure it out
But all I end up singing about is

Madeline, Madeline, Madeline, Madeline
Madeline, Madeline, Madeline, Madeline

Hee, Hee, Hee

My psychotherapist is great
Well, except, when she's not
She says I must eliminate
This fixation I got
My cats all tell me just to chill
I can't help that I'm tense
I swear someone would think I'm ill
If this didn’t make sense

And don’t get me wrong
I wanna sing about how someone else's successes
Do not affect me

I wanna sing about how my own drive
And my passion will always protect me

I wanna sing about age, about youth
About how it is overrated

I wanna sing about rage, about truth
About no longer feeling frustrated

But whenever I sit down to chat
The place that I am always at is

Madeline, Madeline, Madeline, Madeline
Madeline, Madeline, Madeline, Madeline

You know her she’s the one who gets the drink before the keg is tapped out
You know her she's the one who's star ascended, you're the star who crapped out
The one who wins the prize
Does yoga exercises
Whose life is everything you wanted for yourself
And you pull a tub of icing off the shelf
It is not lost on me you’re all here at my show
With your support, I try to let my anger go
But as I look out at your faces I can tell
You'd rather be with her, I know this look real well

So, I'm gonna sing about how you should leave
And go be with the person who's greater

I'm gonna sing about how I'll stay here
I'll perform for one eye-rolling waiter

I'm gonna sing till the anger and jealousy
Illness and horror just numbs me

And you and Madeline
May think that I'm ugly
But I think that bitterness becomes me
Bitterness becomes me

Bitterness becomes me-ee-ee
Bitterness becomes me-ee-ee
Bitterness becomes me-ee-ee

Madeline
Madeline
Madeline
