I don't think Hamlet is mad, nor is he predisposed to be a gloomy or tragic figure.

A final house stands at this hamlet's site (In diesem Dorfe steht das letzte Haus)
A final house stands at this hamlet's site,
as lonesome as the final house on earth.
The road, unhindered by the hamlet's girth
keeps walking slowly out into the night.
The hamlet is but a transition side
of two expanses, anxious, terrified;
its walk along the houses mere relay.
And those that leave the hamlet wander wide
and many die perhaps along the way.
poem by Rainer Maria Rilke (19 September 1901), translated by Walter Aue

Branded
Tragic is the self misplaced.
Tragic is a lost identity...
And no familiarity on anyone's face.
Tragic in denial
Sits the misfits feeling on trial
For lives lived reeking and stinking of bile.
Tragic for them,
Love is not recognized at all...
Nor suitable to start,
From a place within them that begins.
And this becomes tragic for those
Unlike them but comprehending,
These tragedies
May not always be self inflicted...
As they are branded!

Hamlet is a remarkably easy role. Physically it's hard because it tends to be about three hours long and you're talking the whole time. But it's a simple role and it adapts itself very well, because the thing about Hamlet is, we all are Hamlet.

Predisposed
This is my time, this is my time
And now youll go back where you came from
Now is the time to accept, Im right
Was right
Por ser lo mas provocar was wrong
Was wrong
Everythings over and I feel sober
To start my life
That one step took me right there
True intentions are not predisposed to our fear
Searching without a cause
I will not stand here and be controlled
Inside
Lo necesito sin tu control
Im not fine
Siento en me vena ninguna pena
Without a fear
A take that one step right there
True intentions are not predisposed to our fear
Searching without a cause
Like a game of chess I carved your chest
Dont snap back, pull the trigger into my neck
Bust your move, drop the news
Its a crying shame Im feeling all the pain
And you want to slap my face
Youll try to put me in your place
Well Ill step back and then attack
This is my time to get my life back
True intentions are not predisposed to our fear
Searching without a cause
