That would be "Mad World" by Gary Jules.








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 wanna drown my sorrow,


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'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,


And I 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,


Enlargen your world,


Mad world...

Reply:Everyone is right, originally it was Tears for Fears then covered by Gary Jules. Its on the soundtrack of Donnie Darko if you're looking for it and was released as a single for Christmas about 3 years ago I think. It is beautiful.
