"2+2=5" by Radiohead

1. This song is mostly about feeling trapped and stuck in a world where the speaker can't control what's going on. The speaker is completely unsure of what to think about his world and what to do about it. He complains about paying attention because when you think everything's fine and you stop paying attention to what authority's doing, they can change it on you.
2. The music behind the lyrics feels very creepy and weird. It gives off a feeling of confusion and being lost.
3. This relates to 1984 in how they change the basic things and principles of life, but Winston can't do anything about it because he doesn't have the power or authority.
