================================================= I try so hard my dear to show that you're my every dream Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme A memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart? Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue And so now my heart is paying now for the things I didn't do In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops start Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart? The silence of a falling star lights up a purple sky And as I wonder where you are I'm so lonesome I could cry The more I learn to care for you the more we drift apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart? =================================================

Mad World 08:06
================================================= All around me are familiar faces worn out places, worn out faces Bright and early for the daily races Going nowhere, going nowhere And their tears are filling up their glasses No expression, no expression Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow No tomorrow, no tomorrow And I think it's kinda funny I think it's kinda sad The dreams in which I'm dying 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 kind of funny I find it kind of sad The dreams in which I'm dying 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 =================================================
