Top of the World
(Chorus):
 I'm on top of the world
 I'm on top of the world
 
 I'm on top of the word
 but there's only room for one
 
 I'm on top of the world
 On top of the world
 
 I'm on top of the world wondering when I will be done 
 [end of chorus]
 
 
 All the people down below
 all the ones I wish I used to know
 
 They smell the flowers, take life slow
 
 that's the way I want to go
 
 (Chorus) 
 
 Started to make my way down
 to that common ground
 
 But I'm just going round and round
 stuck on this mountain's crown
 
 (Chorus)
 
 Was I once like them?
 is it possible I chose this dead end
 
 If only time could bend
 if only I could have one friend
 
 (Chorus)
 
 My past must have beet better
 If only I could remember
 
 What did I do differently
 What made the gap between them and me
 What changes have I made?
 
 (Chorus)

The good: I really liked this! It had a good beat, and I immediately started singing involuntarilly. Which is a huge compliment, because it usually takes me forever to think of a tune. :P I also liked how you made the "top of the world" something so cliche in it's positive form, something undesirable. Awesome work!
The Bad: I didn't really like the "wondering when I'll be done" part - it didn't really make sense to me, and didn't really fit the tempo.
The Random: Love it!
