Paroles de World Gone Mad

Standing on the roof my daddy built
Looking at the rising of the silt
Everything I ever loved is underneath
But what the river wants, the river keeps

I used to believe in fortune
And that in the hands of God
Everybody gets no more than they deserve

But the more I see the less I understand
Watching as the water swallows the land
I’m starting to believe there was never a plan
That the world’s gone mad

Something’s out of order, out of place
Nothing we were taught is happening today
If you are the maker watching down
What a mess you’re making on this town

I used to believe in fate
And the will of karma
I used to believe in the way the penny dropped

But the more I see the less I understand
Watching as the water swallows the land
I’m starting to believe there was never a plan No, I will not leave
‘Til the water takes me

‘Cause the more I see the less I understand
Watching as the water swallows my land
I’m starting to believe there was never a plan
That the world’s gone mad

The more I see the less I understand
Watching as the water swallows the land
I’m starting to believe there was never a plan
That the world’s gone mad
