X-Ray Mind Lyrics

Performed by Mad Season

Lyrics by Layne Staley
Music by Staley, McCready, Martin, Saunders


Do the laughs die when
One such as I run
And allow myself
Time for own true needs
When convincing me
That you're on my team
May not lie to me
But not mentioning

So sit back and have
An hysterical
Laugh at tiny holes
Buy and trade men's souls

X-ray mind reads plenty
Worth no more than pennies

You, they, it or what
Have been fair, I thought
May you never free
You from you or me
See the more I think
I'm afraid to blink
I don't move an inch
Slowly draining me

Hire a spy and bug me
Pimp your friends for money
Rich and growing sicker
Sell the dead ones quicker

This should've been the staple single of the album | Reviewer: ComaAlpha15 | 8/5/09

River of Deceit sounds like Don't Follow meets Yellow Ledbetter. Where this song just sounds like something on it's own. If it wasn't for Layne's voice being tied to Alice in Chains, you wouldn't be able to tell that these men are from other bands. With this song, Mad Season became an entity all on their own.

I met McCready briefly and asked him about another Mad Season album and he said that it's gonna be difficult with the lead singer being dead and all. I wish I could've gotten more time with him to try and shove some ideas down his throat. Like Layne's replacement in AIC, William DuVall.

Thats right | Reviewer: Jeremy Michael Busby | 1/11/08

You are exactly right. Layne sings about things that are so true and deep that one can REALLY relate too. Not some bullshit money making pop with no meaning. I miss him a lot, and I've never even met him

This is where talent lets the arts make the music | Reviewer: Tony Dumont | 9/27/07

These guys as of 2007 still hold under their belts the best music record in years. They are Artists not pop artists. Every song is a calladge which paints a vivid picture that is so effective and emotionaly special. They searched high and low to mix so many influences into a carefully crafted and brilliant record. Mozart Bach Betovan Chopin
MAD SEASON. Can Timberlake James Blunt Maroon Five Sum 41 Beyonce sing right or hold music beauty this well. NOt even Close.
