The protagonist is feeling confused and disillusioned with the world around him. He has tried to escape to clear his mind, but even reading the news just reminds him of how bad things are. People have always had trouble getting along and agreeing on things, and it seems like the game of life is playing them for fools. No one gets to make the rules, and one person's truth might be another person's lie. The cycle of life continues with one person taking the place of another, and ultimately, the protagonist realizes that he doesn't get to make the rules either.
