The Manipulated Dead

don't look at me... I didn't do it...

"all around me are familiar faces, worn out places, worn out faces
bright and early for their daily races
going no where, going no where
their tears are filling up their glasses
no expression, no expression
hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
no tomorrow, no tomorrow

and i find it kind of funny and i find it kinda sad
the dreams in which i'm dieing are the best i've ever had
i find it hard to tell you i find it hard to take
when people run in circles it's a very very
mad world, mad world

children waiting for the day they feel good
happy birthday, happy birthday

and I feel the way that every child should
sit and listen, sit and listen

went to school and I was very nervous
no one knew me, no one knew me
hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
look right through me, look right through me

and I find it kinda funny i find it kinda sad
the dreams in which i'm dieing are the best i've ever had
i find it hard to tell you i find it hard to take
when people run in circles it's a very very
mad world

a mad world
enlarging your world
mad world"
