Within Temptation
"Mad World" lyrics

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
Are 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
