The World

When I held your hand well I swear it was the world
So I promise I'll stop drinking when I run
Out of family to blame
All I ever wanted was to hear you say
Please don't leave me, no please don't go away

Oooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
Oooo ooo ooo ooo ooo

I hope someday you find the emptiness that you made me feel
It broke my heart to break your heart
But there were no more years to steal
And how I wish I had something more profound to say
About last summer down in Big Spring when I pretended to be sane
But I've always been pretty good at walkin' away

Oooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
Oooo ooo ooo ooo ooo

And there's a madness in my head
Yeah there's a madness in my head
There's a madness in my head
Yeah there's a madness

Can I make peace with the fact that there might be no peace for me
I wanna make something that tries to take responsibility
For the sadness that I feel inside
I'm just an amateur man with average ideas
But I've always been pretty good at telling lies

And there's a madness in my head
Yeah there's a madness in my head
There's a madness in my head
Yeah there's a madness

Oooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
Oooo ooo ooo ooo ooo

You know I always wished that I was Maggie's boy
You know I always wished that I was Maggie's boy
Oh how I wished that I was Maggie's boy
You know I always wished that I was Maggie's boy
