Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere
Going nowhere
[Verse 2]
And their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression
No expression
Hide my head, I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow
No tomorrow
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Made to feel a way that every child should
Sit and listen
Sit and listen
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
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
