Mad World (Donnie Darko Soundtrack)
Mad World (Donnie Darko Sou... Lyrics & Chords
I’ve been feeling blue lately. So picked a song that fits my current state of mind. This is from the Donnie Darko Sountrack and is one of our (me and my wife) fav songs. Beautiful lyrics and full of emotions. I have tried my best to capture the emotions as that is the essence of this simple song. I hope all of you can relate to this.
Lyrics:
Mad World
Gary Jules (cover of Tears for Fears)
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their 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 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
Enlarging your world
Mad World.

For the first time I liked Harmonies (I am not a big fan of them). It has a great lyrical value, The song was not that great for me until I heard the Harmonies. You sang it really well man, loved the way you manitained the feel.

It is a great song, it is extremely downbeat though so not really one you wanna listen to much unless you are in that mood.
Nice one George as ever.
