Tell me what's wrong with society
When everywhere I look I see
Young girls dying to be on tv
They won't stop til they've reached their dreams
Diet pills, surgery
Photoshopped pictures in magazines
Telling them how they should be
It doesn't make sense to me

Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what's going on
Tell me what's going on
If you open your eyes you'll see
That something is wrong

I guess things are not how they used to be
There's no more normal families
Parents act like enemies
Making kids feel like it's world war 3
No one cares
No one's there
I guess we're all just too damn busy
And money's our first priority
It doesn't make sense to me

Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what's going on
Tell me what's going on
If you open your eyes you'll see
That something is wrong

Is everybody going crazy?
Is everybody going crazy?

Tell me what's wrong with society
When everywhere I look I see
Rich guys driving big SUVs
When kids are starving in the street
No one cares
No one likes to share
I guess life's unfair

Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what's going on
Tell me what's going on
If you open your eyes you'll see
That something something is wrong
Is everybody going crazy?
Can anybody tell me what's going on
Tell me what's going on
If you open your eyes you'll see
That something is wrong

    General Comment:This is a song about someone looking around him and seeing everyone is obsessed with the little things they want (Their eyes closed) and he wants to see the big picture (Open your eyes)

    General Comment:This song talks about the problems in the world. I love the lyrics.

    "Is everybody going crazy?"

    "If you open your eyes, you'll see that something is wrong!"

    Absolutely priceless, and the singer puts so much emotion into it.

    General Comment:To answer the questions in the song,
    Yes, everybody has already gone crazy.
    And No, nobody is gonna save us.

    Those descriptions in the song has already become the normal reality, and what they say? This is a crazy world, things will only go crazier. Like the investment market, housing price. It's about money, it's about fame.
    The ugly truth is, even if we know something's wrong, we can't actually fix it, well some might get fixed while some get worse. We can see that pills not only help us to be thin, but can also unfortunately lead to death. For those who've left us, wish them all R.I.P.
    Yes this is crazy, not that we don't want to do something about it, but this is the cycle of life, we grow, annoyed by the world, become part of it, become sick of it and then we reflect upon the mistakes we made in life, may die with regrets or in peace.

    General Comment:XP I appreciate the sentimwnt, and it's true, but what a crap song. It's overearnest, in such a way that you can tell that it's just their token concerned-about-the-world song. They've done a few decent songs, but this ain't one of them. I mean, what, did their manager tell them that they need to write a song in which they seem to not be self-absorbed. Well, their audience either likes them because said audience is also self-absorbed, or likes them as a guilty pleasure. Surprisingly, they do manage to get self-absorption into this one, but unlike most of their songs, they don't even do "poor me" right. Plus, it sounds so terrible I can't even listen to the whole thing.
