Default If you can guess what this is about I'll give you a tenner

I'm a restless soul/
Drowning in Earth/
They all comfort me/
but they don't know what I'm worth/
one billion lights/
light up the sky/
one billion smiles/
light up your eyes/
Breathless vanity/
and you're screaming profanities/
downfall of humanity/
and yet she smiles along with me/
Either I'm terrified/
Or I'm happy now/
She must have lied/
Because we're all feeling down...down...down...

CHORUS
It's a mad man/
It's a mad man/
No one confronts his plan/
for which he so gallantly stands/
Never to raise up his hands/

Save me the insult/
of burning my heart/
I've destroyed millions/
but you're tearing me apart/
Screens of hatred block my soul/
But my soul also blocks my goal/
What you have heard is different/
from what you've been told/

CHORUS
It's a mad man/
It's a mad man/
No one confronts his plan/
For which he so gallantly stands/
Never to raise up his hands/

He wipes off her make up/
Not how he wants her/
They begin to break up/
she can't hold on any longer/
Downfall of evil/
downfall of love/
they sit in the soil/
and watch the dripping of their blood/
chaos ensues above/
chaos that he loves/
but she has been dragged/
in something that she knows is bad/

CHORUS
It's a mad man/
It's a mad man/
No one confronts his plan/
For which he so gallantly stands/
Never to raise up his hands/


Like the thread name says, guess what this is about and I really will be suprised.

The bad boy doing...bad things & his love, a girl of course, getting sucked into it, but not wanting/approving it & shes kinda had enough. But the bad boy wont stand down & accept others advice & whatnot. Oh! this girl is also the only one that makes him feel a certain way or soemthing like that.

yeah...it's 3am so this may be way off, but i'll have a stab at it.

The speaker in the song is someone who's always manipulated women for his own agenda, and never had it affect him. Suddenly he's with somone who he develops real feelings for, and the feeling terrifies him, because for the first time he actually has something to lose. She's aware of his habbits, can't live with them, and doesn't believe that he's actually not using her.

or I could be way off and it's really a cleverly disguised song about cheerios.

I don't know how you guessed but that is exactly right... it's not just about them in the bunker, but their whole relationship. You get my metaphorical tenner!
