The song that sums up the last 18 months

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
 
Are you mad or is the world mad?

A bit of both actually. What? You think you are totally sane? That's your error.
There is at least some crazy aspect of your life. Like my little addictions. Ice cream. Going to my fave coffee shop. Swimming at 6am tomorrow morning in winter. Being blind to my dog's bad behaviour. Thinking I'm better than my siblings.
We all at least have crazy thoughts. We don't admit to. Are women so saintly? Are men more prone to sin? And sinful thoughts? Maybe that's the cross men bear. Most of us will never be saints. Women . Nurturing women are the natural saints. Who marry men that are just as childish as their children.
 
The amazing thing about music is that many people make a story from the lyrics and can make it there own, when the original lyrics dont acturally mean anything as a whole in the song and are just random pieces put together, yet can tell a story that people can relate.
Case in point.
Bitter sweet symphony. By The Verve.
The lyrics are so pessimistic . So self pitying. Yet the music itself, is gorgeous, majestic with a string arrangement.
That sound has became sacred to me. It's like entering a beautiful cathedral.
