This World is Drunk

Lyrics

He's always in three places
 Spaces undefined
 Heart is always racin'
 For something he will never find
 Eyes are black
 Black and cold
 His soul has been shaken
 So shaken
 I believe he knows
 The sun could never reach him
 The view looks like a bomb
 The paradox is far away
 His brain weighs at least a ton
 His mind is so stressed out
 Tryin' to be a king
 When everyone around him
 Sees the clown and
 They're laughing at him
 Look at this idiot
 Don't know he's been set up to fall
 Can't find the truth in any friend
 And all he ever does is want drugs
 This world is drunk
 And the people are mad
 This world is drunk
 And the people are mad
 This world is drunk, ooh
 This world is drunk and
 This world is drunk and the people are mad
 He doesn't get a listen
 Not even to himself
 He spent four years away
 Was led astray
 Convicted for fraud
 He said he knows more now
 Now that he returned
 The books that he read there
 Told him he had gone too far
 He's always feeling left out
 And he always left his friends out
 He never understood why
 That most of his friends are just bums
 He's tryna live better now
 He says he needs that family life
 He can tell he wasted much time
 Winter time has taken his life
 And making him miserable
 He never feels he's in control
 He finds it hard to walk away
 So all he ever does is stay drunk
 This world is drunk
 And the people are mad (So mad)
 This world is drunk
 And the people are mad (So mad)
 This world is drunk, ooh
 This world is drunk (So drunk)
 This world is drunk
 And the people are mad (This world is drunk!)
 This world is drunk
 And the people are mad (So, so very, so very)
 This world is drunk
 And the people are mad (So mad)
 This world is drunk (So mad)
 Ooh, this world is drunk (So mad)
 This world is drunk (So mad!)
 And the people are mad
 This world is drunk
