Cover art for Mad World (Tears for Fears cover) lyrics by Michael Andrews

this song is pretty much talking about how the kids and teenagers of our time feel so small and unimportant in the vast world we live in. People start to feel like nobody even cares about them anymore, and they dont have a point in the world.

"the dreams in which im dying are the best ive ever had"

^^ some people would rather just die than live with no point.

The sad thing is, our society really is coming to this point. So many people feel shut out from the world, and everyone else is too caught up in their own lives to notice.

My Interpretation

yes, like me.

"The dreams in which im dying are the best are I've ever had"

Sometimes, people just want to die. But they don't want to suicide. Religion beliefs/fear..?

Yes, exactly.. "How can I feel surrounded, even when the world surrounds me?" - Dream Theater - Misunderstood

Back to this song; some people; e.g;me; just don't give a shit of anything anymore. we're too sad. too much has happened to us. most of us have "so much anger aimed in no particular direction" - Eminem - White America. hm, i could explain so much more of these few words,...
