Music: Mad World

Mad World is a song by the British band Tears for Fears, written by Roland Orzabal and sung by bassist Curt Smith:

This version you are about to listen, sung by Adam Lambert, contains the lyrics (maybe you are familiar with this version thanks to the Halo 3 videogame advert):

All around me are familiar faces

Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races

Going nowhere, going nowhere

And their tears are filling up their glasses

No expression, no expression

Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrows

No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kind of funny

I find it kind of sad

The dreams in which I'm dying

Are the best I ever had

I find it hard to tell you

I find it hard to take

When people run in circles

It's a very very,

Mad world, Mad world
Children waiting for the day they feel good

Happy birthday, happy birthday

May they feel the way that every child should

Sit and listen, sit and listen

Went to school and I was very nervous

No one knew me, no one knew me

Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson

Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kind of funny,

I find it kind of sad

The dreams in which I'm dying

Are the best I've ever had

I find it hard to tell you

I find it hard to take

When people run in circles

It's a very very

Mad world, Mad world

Mad world, Mad world
