A song lyric

I think the song is called mad world.

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

And yet why is this saddening? This is a sign that hope still exists. It is the hope to die but it is a hope of a voluntary choice being made real.

In real life it may as well be the hope of winning the lottery for most people. A small handful get their wish.

Well, of course, the difference is the subjective judgement. Those left to live while feeling like the song from Donnie Darko are only left to live with their dream while others ensure there is no possibility of it ever happening.

It doesn't matter. If ever I was going to be a millionaire I guess I would be a self made millionaire. I don't play the lottery.
