lyrics

I’m walking past the streetcars
And my mind’s in a daze
Think I’m seeing clearer but I don’t know which way
Gotta get it out, Gotta get away
Discolor my perception Open my eyes
It’s a sober realization how we’re all in disguise
We feed the disease, we do as we please

Such a mad mad mad mad world

So sure of your direction
No one gets in your way
Drunk on your own confidence you’ve so much to say
Gotta get it out, don’t let it get away
Think your so informed but you don’t care either way
Just a fickle fascination with the news of the day
Try losing yourself, Try feelin ashamed

Such a mad mad mad mad world

Always the one off shooting your gun
Think you see it so clear
It’s just the lines on the mirror
