Mad World -- Adam Lambert

I kinda like this version of Mad World sung by Adam Lambert. The lyrics are wonderful; the song makes people pause and think.

Mad World

All around me are familiar faces,
worn out places, worn out faces;
bright and early for the daily races,
going nowhere, going nowhere.

Their tears are filling up their glasses,
no expression, no expression.
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow,
no tomorrow, no tomorrow.

And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda 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.

Children waiting for the day they feel good:
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday.
When they feel the way that every child should,
sit and listen, sit and listen.

I 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 kinda funny, I find it kinda 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.
