I think it is not just about seeing, we actually live because of someone else tragedy. I think just saying it is about "seeing death and tragedy" is not all of it.

The universe is hostile
So impersonal
Devour to survive
So it is, so it's always been ...
We all feed on tragedy.
It's like blood to a vampire
Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies
Much better you than I.

...This song is simply about...

..the true meaning of this song.
If your reply was supposed to falsify jenocide's interpretation, this is not the way to do it. There were not any argument why it was not close to "true meaning".

I say: "I think this candy tastes sweet".
You say: "That is not true, because I think it tastes bad".


Of course, one could wonder if there is any point to use term "true meaning" when talking about interpretations of this song..
