Mad World Lyrics in English by Michele Bravi
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mad World by Michele Bravi from Italian to English.
All around me are familiar faces
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kinda funny
And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world
It's a very, very mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
And I feel the way that every child should
And I feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kinda funny
And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world
It's a very, very mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Enlarging your world
Enlarging your world
Mad world
Mad world

Did you like this lyrics translation?
Enlarging — Ingrandire
The word "Enlarging" is an interesting choice because it's the only Italian word in the provided lyrics, making it stand out immediately. While the song is primarily in English, this single Italian word adds a unique touch.
In the context of the song, it appears at the very end as "Enlarging your world." This phrase suggests a potential for growth, expansion, or a shift in perspective, offering a glimmer of hope or change in an otherwise melancholic narrative. It invites the listener to consider what it means to enlarge one's world, both literally and metaphorically.
