Mad World

Mad World
Can't control the restless part of me
Bowing down our heads to love and greed
I wonder, can't deny, it's in my head
A world in flames, the blood we shed

Walls are falling down on us
We wanna scream our pain
And break away from the dark
Caught in this wicked game
We know that nothing stays the same
'Cause we're living in a mad world (Mad world)
We're living in a mad world
We're living in a mad world (Mad world)
We're living in a mad world (Mad world)
Trying to hold on to all we know
But one day turn around and let it go
Restless, can't deny the dreams we had
Our glowing sparks, the fire ain't dead
Walls are falling down on us
We wanna scream our pain
And break away from the dark
Caught in this wicked game
We know that nothing stays the same
'Cause we're living in a mad world (Mad world)
We're living in a mad world
We're living in a mad world (Mad world)
We're living in a mad world (Mad world)

We hate, we love, we're fighting
This world is tearing us apart
And piece by piece we're crumbling
We're crumbling
We wanna scream our pain
And break away from the dark
Caught in this wicked game
We know that nothing stays the same
'Cause we're living in a mad world (Mad world)
We're living in a mad world
We're living in a mad world (Mad world)
We're living in a mad world
We're living in a mad world
We're living in a mad world
We're living in a mad world
We're living in a mad world (Mad world)
