Lirik Lagu Madwoman - Laufey beserta Maknanya

Such a terrible idea
Worst one I've had all this year
But I can't ignore our obvious attraction
I imagine how it ends
Up in flames, we'll go again
Seeking chaos, can't help giving into passion

But there's something so vexing 'bout you
It's like the gods above us don't approve
We've been through this before
Fell in and out, I said, "No more"
But still, I want you like a mad, mad woman

I remind myself how he'd
Question everything 'bout me
Call me stupid as a mindless joke
You hypnotized me as we spoke
Purely mythological with the ugliest soul
You would think that he is holding me for ransom

'Cause there's something so vexing 'bout you
It's like the gods above us don't approve
We've been through this before
Fell in and out, I said, "No more"
But still, I want you like a mad, mad woman

Made it to the final hour
But the wine begins to sour
And I'm seeing myself in a dreadful fashion
Then the fog begins to clear
As I'm gasping at clean air
I remember how together, we're so handsome

'Cause there's something so vexing 'bout you
It's like the gods above us don't approve
We've been through this before
Fell in and out, I said, "No more"
But still, I want you like a mad, mad woman
