Mad World - Gary Jules

I don't know why, but I was listening to this song and found it very haunting and depressing, yet at the same time very soothing. I don't like that because it's a song of resignation, yet something about it resonated with me. I do not want to give into apathy.

We really need a few wins here and some good news. I feel very worn out these days.

... This is a very moving song. My first listen to it was through Tears For Fears. A wonderful version.

I also feel a mixture of comfort and sadness all in one.
