Larkin Poe - Mad As A Hatter

This is my favourite Larkin Poe song...I wish they would release it.

They really need to release this song as the first single from their next album. I know it's an older song but with the social movement to destigmatize mental illness, it's more relevant than ever. It's a song whose time has come.

If a kick in the teeth was a song this is it. Can’t get enough of this masterpiece.

I love this song, but it makes me cry my eyes out. I think it hits a little too close to home.

An amazing song about a difficult topic..... Anyone who's had a family member with dementia will understand.

I love this song. An extraordinary song, so particular, out of time, outside the box, from genres. Every time I hear them, but above all I watch them play this song, I shiver. I could listen to it a million times and not get tired.

As someone who suffers from mental illness, the lyrics makes me cry. 😢

I know what time is, time is a thief It'll steal into bed and rob you while you sleep And you'll never feel it It pulls off the covers, and rifles through your head Then you'll wait to find you can't remember what you just said... It happens to everyone... Just like the father of my father, time stole his mind And I can't forget that one-fourth of his blood is mine I try not to worry... Please don't come for me I promise I'll be great Just let me keep what's mine (let me keep what's mine) Please don't come for me If you must then just please wait and let me have some time (let me have some time) Please don't come for me Mind over matter (it don't matter) when you're as mad as a hatter It's hard to draw a clear distinction Who you are, who you were Through the looking glass, the past and future begin to blur And no-one can blame you Well they say the world is what you make it You think, speak and breathe And those rules still apply, stuck in a world of make believe You make the best with what you're given... Please don't come for me I promise I'll be great Just let me keep what's mine (let me keep what's mine) Please don't come for me If you must then just please wait and let me have some time (let me have some time) Please don't come for me Mind over matter (it don't matter) when you're as mad as a hatter Off with her head, off with her head Paint the roses, paint the roses ...

Beautiful earings. This song lands on my soul gently. My great uncle Norman suffered from scitzofrenia his whole life. He managed to serve in the military successfully. The only real inspiration I had growing up that and superheros and villains. He passed away in a nursing home and cried his eyes out every time I left a visit. A very strong kind man he was 💯

They kept this piece as pure as their earlier version. So much thought is in this piece. I love this song and its message. Their look has evolved as well. Megan is so very good looking. They both are...but Megan is so connected to that slide it's one with her.

i went through the Alzheimers journey with my mom and all the lines remind me of what she went through as "time stole her mind." Time is NOT your friend with dementia.

I love this group, especially this song, even though I hate the truth in it. I've had friends the last 20 yrs. who have it. Some have passed on. One has a very good attitude about hers most of the time. I can't help the tears every time I listen or even read the lyrics. Don't come for me.

Brilliant, just brilliant. Great sound, great vocals, awesome musicianship. The whole band without exception. Fantastic. 🤠👍🎸

Just discovered Larkin Poe and this song. I am jaw-dropped. Love it!

Thank you for posting this Oldie :), this is so sweet.

If anyone is first hearing this song and the appreciate it/find it means something to them, look up the live version. I don't say this often but the live version is 1000x better in every way. It really is a special performance.

All the beauty in all detail. Nearly can't stand it 🙏💓
