They say we're on the edge of disaster
They say we're on a sinking ship
Waiting for the crew to row faster
But don't you know they're full of it, yeah
Oh, I know there are better days ahead
All I know's what you see's not what you get
All this madness, madness, madness
Is bringing me down
Is bringing me down, down, down
All this madness, madness, madness
Is bringing me down
Is bringing me down, down, down
But the only way is up from here now
I swear that I've seen greener pastures
I swear I've seen the people rise
Opening the book is so easy
It's hard to read between the lines, oh
Oh, I know there are better days ahead (oh, yeah, yeah, yeah)
All I know's what you see's not what you get
All this madness, madness, madness
Is bringing me down
Is bringing me down, down, down
All this madness, madness, madness
Is bringing me down
Is bringing me down, down, down
But the only way is up from here now
Oh, turn it off, turn it off for a second
Trying to make my life a little more pleasant
Got my own plan, got my own remedy
Just trying to be me, oh, yeah
In this madness, madness, madness
Is bringing me down
Is bringing me down, down, down
All this madness, madness, madness
Is bringing me down
Is bringing me down, down, down
But the only way is up from here now
