lyrics

You’ve been acting kinda crazy,
to show you smile straight.
You know the secrets you’ve been hiding,
I see them in your face.
The way you say you’re always happy,
addicted to having fun.
It’s just a symptom of the madness I see in everyone.

Firing yourself across the room,
spreading your order round
Forcing truth from your opinions,
because you like the way you sound.
You like to demonstrate your power,
but truthfully you have none
Just an example of the madness I see in everyone

Well you look down when I do good,
and you look smug when I do bad
Why don’t you do the world a favour
and just be honest when you’re sad
cos we’re all running round the fairground
and all the freaks are having fun
cos they’re accepting to the madness I see in everyone.
We’re all victims to the madness I see in everyone
So find your peace with the madness before you get stung
Or you’ll be fucking with the madness I see in everyone.
