Mad World Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What would you say
If the whole world could hear it?
What would you do
If you knew they would believe it?
I need something real
And we don't care how you feel
I don't wanna give up, we will never give up

[Chorus]
We got black mascara runnin'
We want change, but it ain't comin'
Hanging by a thread
So close to the edge
We wanna beat that generation
But we can't live up to their expectations
Hanging by a thread
So close to the edge
[Refrain]
Livin' in a mad world
We're livin' in a mad world
Livin' in a mad—

[Verse 2]
I cannot change
I'm proud of who I am
And this is how I stay
Don't care if you understand it
I need something real
And we don't care how you feel
I don't wanna give up, we will never give up

[Chorus] We got black mascara runnin'
We want change, but it ain't comin'
Hanging by a thread
So close to the edge
We wanna beat that generation
But we can't live up to their expectations
Hanging by a thread
So close to the edge

[Bridge]
Livin' in a mad world
We're livin' in a mad world
We're livin' in a mad world
We're livin' in a mad world
We're livin' in a mad world
[Chorus]
We got black mascara runnin'
We want change, but it ain't comin'
Hanging by a thread
So close to the edge
We wanna beat that generation
But we can't live up to their expectations
Hanging by a thread
So close to the edge

[Outro]
What would you say
If the whole world could hear it?
What would you do
If you knew they would believe it?
