Sometimes it feels like my life's a battle And I think I'm losing my mind When all that surrounds me is made of shadows If I'm just a lost soul that's made of paper But your touch can color the white And bring back the beauty into my life 'Cause it's a mad world but it's crazy Crazy how you make the bad turn to amazing And I don't want to lose this now I don't want to lose this now No, I don't want to lose this now 'Cause it's a mad world Were both strangers finding our way together Like two lights that dance through the dark We shine bright and fade out into forever And I'm trying to hold back the way I'm feeling But you make me come back to life Yeah, you've got me going insane tonight 'Cause it's a mad world but it's crazy Crazy how you make the bad turn to amazing And I don't want to lose this now I don't want to lose this now No, I don't want to lose this now 'Cause it's a mad world 'Cause it's a mad world

He's a modern day Jekyll and Hyde, mixin' pride with the cold hard facts Starin' awful hard at a picture on a bar of a girl that he won't get back He's talkin' to himself knowin' damn well his self doesn't know what now 'Xcept fire shots of Jack and popping caps of Silver Bullets in his mouth He's a mad man at the world 'Cause a girl told him goodbye His thumbs-up has been grounded Now it's that bird he loves to fly Might be happy hour to you but his mind ain't nowhere near there It's busy goin' crazy on the heels of her Mercedes Drivin' back home north of 80 to the Badlands He's still holdin' on like a mad man He ain't lookin' for a fight but that might be what ya get If you light that fuse that looks to you like a half-smoked cigarette Just leave his glass half empty, he's better off left alone Kind of like a house up the road, the lights are on but no one's home He's a mad man at the world 'Cause a girl told him goodbye Now his thumbs-up has been grounded It's that bird he loves to fly It might be happy hour to you but his mind ain't nowhere near there It's busy goin' crazy on the heels of her Mercedes Drivin' back home north of 80 to the Badlands He's still holdin' on like a mad man Yeah, like a mad man, oh Mad man Like a mad man
