How can the world be so unfair?

lyrics

WORLD’S GONE MAD

Some days I feel like
the world has gone mad,
but most days the «mad»
is in me.

Piano

Playing piano,
and writing a book.
Drawing an eagle
in flight….is it me?

½ ref.: (soft):
World’s gone mad,
it’s completely out of circle.
World’s gone mad,
this is just a grand illusion.

Here in my castle
of dreams and of hope,
thinking of ventures,
so big and so bald.

Everyday problems
seem real and so true.
Looking around us,
we’re all living good.

Is it me? Is it me?
Is it me? Is it me? Is it me? Is it me?

Ref.:
World’s gone mad,
it’s completely out of circle.
World’s gone mad,
this is just a grand illusion.

World’s gone mad,
how can we shoot other people?
World’s gone mad,
how come children still are starving?

Instrumental

My eagle flies high above in the sky.
Leaving a place where it’s safe.
Circling around in the poor side of the world.
Observing the sad side of truth.

Is it me? Is it me?
Is it me? Is it me? Is it me? Is it me?

Mod. ref.:
World’s gone mad,
gone mader than mader than mad
gone mad,
gone mader than mader than…

People in line for
a few grains of rice.
Water as brown as
the earth.

Begging each night
to survive the next day.
We’re holding their hope
in our hands.

Is it me? Is it me?
Is it me? Is it me? Is it me? Is it me?

Ref.:
World’s gone mad,
it’s completely out of circle.
World’s gone mad,
this is just a grand illusion.

World’s gone mad,
how can we shoot other people?
World’s gone mad,
how come children still are starving?

Instrumental
