Thrice are an American post-hardcoreband that formed in Irvine, California in 1997. In 2000, Thrice signed-up with Sub City Records and released two LPs. The first, Identity Crisis(2000), only received 1.5 stars in the AMG review and little buzz. The second, The Illusion of Safety(2002), was widely acclaimed and received attention from major record labels. Even though Thrice's music has always included some metal influences, The Illusion of Safety contains a heavier metalcore sound than the rest of their records.

Madman Lyrics
Thrice
our course is coarsely plotted
on a map of shoddy dreams
and hindsight will reveal
time's moving faster than it seems
and maybe i'm just selfish
cause ive got nothing left to give
im still a foolish boy
ive got a lifetime left to live
i was swinging like a madman,
not quite sure what i'd felled
and i might never understand
exactly what it was i'd held
now i watch the sun descending
from the weathered gravel roof
and i recall the sky once told me
that all lies lead to the truth
so i'll look the other way
and i'll turn a deafened ear
and i'll talk of distant lands
and pretend i was never here
reality beads on my skin
like a slicker in the rain
but now i feel it's soaking in
and i begin to feel the pain
i fight the urge to run to you
this is how it has to be
we've gotta step away
right now we're just to close to see
so i'll look the other way
and i'll turn a deafened ear
and I'll talk of distant lands
and pretend I was never here
