Lyrics One's Second Thoughtlessness - Madness

One's Second Thoughtlessness

Reaching up to press my best friend’s bell
On my tiptoes
Whatever made me climb this side of hell
Oh, God only knows
Lifting up another catch and slipping through the blind
It’s… it’s so easy
Lighting up another match to see what I can find
It’s… become so easy
But after a while
You can hear yourself breathe
What seems a long long while
You can feel yourself sealed
Ones second thoughtlessness
Nobody’s home
One’s second thoughtlessness
One’s second thoughtlessness
Here up on my own
One’s second thoughtlessness
Sniffing around
Hope to get out
Smelling a scent
That something is up
I’ve seen this song before
Is this the house my family lives — yes
Ah, I’ve been here before
Yes, I did it because, because
Yes, I did it because
Yes, I did it because, because
Yes, yes, I did it because, because
No — because
One’s second thoughtlessness
I am my own
One’s second thoughtlessness
One’s second thoughtlessness
I stand alone
One’s second thoughtlessness
