Mad World

I believe I am going to go mad
Everything I do
It seems to drive me mad
I deem this world is what makes me sad
Nothing seems to change
The whole world just stays the same
But that’s okay

Think I’ll walk in the park
I do that almost every day
Brings warm feelings to my heart
Oh how I wish they would stay

When I see all the chaos surround
Oh how the bedlam brings on the clouds
But would make it all change
For I know it will all stay the same

And when I’m living within me
Can’t stand the heartache
Need something to set me free

And what else can I do
And what else should I do
The whole world seems so old
Is it just me
Am I starting to get old
Is it just me
I hope I don’t get cold
I’d rather see all the pain
Yeah

Within all bitter prophecies
I still hope for another that says someday we will all be free
With all our foresight
Will somebody stand out off the crowd to see the same as me
The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

And I won't make the same mistakes
(Because I know)
Because I know how much time that wastes
(And function)
Function is the key

    I really like this one Depop! I get very frustrated watching the news or even seeing things in everyday life that are so wrong. I had to resign myself to the fact that I can't change the world but I can change myself and what I choose to do or not do. I also look at my children and want a better place for them to grow up in this world. I have found there are alot of people who only care about living within their comfort zone but there are also alot that do not and want to make a difference.
    Our love must not be just words, but True Love, which shows itself in action,
    No one needs a smile more than someone who fails to give one,
    After you die...you know how to LIVE!

    This is mindless dribble. I like the meaning behind what I wrote, but after re-reading it, I realize it may be one of the worst pieces of writing I have ever done, or at least posted….sorry

    Geeez, that was rather harsh! I don't think it sounds like mindless dribble at all.
