Help me with this song. "All aroud me are familiar places, worn out faces..." Playstation commercial.

The song title is "Mad World".The original was sung by Tears for Fears in the 80's. It was remade by Gary Jules and Michael Andrews and featured in the film Donnie Darko (jokingly called the "slit-your-wrists-version"). It's also been remade by Finch in an acoustic session. The one used in the playstation commercial was Gary Jules and Michael Andrews.





Lyrics are (Tears for Fears version):





All around me are familiar faces


Worn out places, worn out faces


Bright and early for their daily races


Going nowhere, going nowhere


And their tears are filling up their glasses


No expression, no expression


Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow


No tommorow, no tommorow


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


'Cos I find it hard to take


When people run in circles


It's a very, very


Mad World


Children waiting for the day they feel good


Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday


Made to 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

Help me with this song. "All aroud me are familiar places, worn out faces..." Playstation commercial.

MAD WORLD





All around me are familiar faces


Worn out places - worn out faces


Bright and early for their daily races


Going nowhere - going nowhere


And their tears are filling up their glasses


No expression - no expression


Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow


No tommorow - no tommorow





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


'Cos I find it hard to take


When people run in circles


It's a very, very Mad World





Children waiting for the day they feel good


Happy Birthday - Happy Birthday


Made to 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


'Cos I find it hard to take


When people run in circles


It's a very, very Mad World
