Lyric discussion by Its me Its DDP 

so ppl actually take the lyrics "pretend we're dead" letierally? why am i not surprised?

It is a great song, and it's definatley not about pretending to be dead, honestly you guys sound like Sage(DJ for Radio X on GTASA) trying to describe this song...

Wake up and smell the coffee Or just say no to individuality

well from the second lyric in that lilne, "say no to individuality" it's obvious,

pretend we're dead is a metaphor, for ppl who want to fit in so badly, they buy into all the coorperate and social standards, pretending they are the perfect image, pretending that their inner self is dead....

An error occured.
