Back to Pink Floyd again: Dark Side of the Moon this time.

“I’ve always been mad,
I know I’ve been mad, like the most of us are…
very hard to explain why you’re mad,
even if you’re not mad…”

If accused of being mad, it’s just as hard to explain that you are not mad, since trying to prove it only underlines your need to prove you are not mad, which must mean you are mad.

This is directed at the C of E, not Coverdale Hall by the way.  They’re mostly still wonderful.
