Sad World
[Verse 1]
As a kid I loved TV
Watched cartoons as I fell asleep
Never down on energy
But now I'm older
Nightly news is killing me
Was all this happenin' when I was three?
All I want is to go back

[Pre-Chorus]
Youth is wasted on the young
No idea what you'll become
Think life's all about havin' fun
Oh, I'll just go and get a drink
You don't wanna know what I really think
It'll kill your innocence

[Chorus]
The whole world has gone sad
And I'm stuck, I've lost track
Would you take a hit of the past?
Where we could be blind too
I'll give you my point of view
Tell me, would you go back?
'Cause the whole world's gone sad
[Verse 2]
I've been tearin' out pages
Slowly flippin' through phases
But everythin' stays the same
No one wants to change

[Pre-Chorus]
Youth is wasted on the young
No idea what you'll become
Think life's all about havin' fun
Oh, I'll just go and get a drink
You don't wanna know what I really think
It'll kill your innocence

[Chorus]
The whole world has gone sad
And I'm stuck, I've lost track
Would you take a hit of the past?
Where we could be blind too
I'll give you my point of view
Tell me, would you go back?
'Cause the whole world's gone sad
(Sad, sad, sad)
(Sad, sad, sad)
