Tears For Fears', "Mad World"
The Lyrics:
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 kind of sad.
The dreams in which I'm dying,
are the best I've ever had.
Why:
The song is very up tempo and you can dance to it, but you might not feel like it after hearing he likes the thought of dying.

Tears For Fears', "Mothers Talk"
The Lyrics:
My features form with a change in the weather
Weekend, we can work it out
My features form with a change in the weather
We can; we can work it out.
When the weather burns
then you know you're in trouble
Weekend, we can work it out
My features form with a change in the weather
We can; we can work it out.
When the weather burns
then you know you're in trouble
Why:
According to Roland Orzabal there are two things that Mothers Talk is about.
The first of which is an old wives tale about mothers telling their children when they make a face they say "your face will stay like that when the weather changes." Hence the line "My features form with a change in the weather."
The line " when the weather burns then you know you're in trouble." comes from the governmental powers in the U.S. and U.K. at the time starting a potential third world war which scared Roland a little bit.

Tears For Fears', "The Way You Are"
The Lyrics:
Going far
getting nowhere
Going far
The way you are.
getting nowhere
Going far
The way you are.
Why:
It has a lively beat to it but I don't know of anybody who wants to be told that they're not going to go far by not being the way that they are.
