I don't know if I'd go as far as "sarcastic," but it's definitely not supposed to be totally sincere.
Like ProudesterMonkey said, "fine" and "cool" are probably the least convincing words you could use. Those are the type of words you use when you're NOT ok, but you use them because you really don't want to talk about it.
I would think that this is something he tried; you know, trying not to analyze everything because it gets frustrating. Like at the part where he goes:
"I know what you'll say
'This won't last longer than the rest of the day'
But you're wrong this time"
Like he tells people "I'm just going to chill out and not over-think it" and the people who know him are like "Yeah, right, sure John." I guess it's just who he is, with all of his crazy thoughts and whatnot. But then, without them, we wouldn't be enjoying such good music, would we?
(side note: I find it funny that we're analyzing a song about analyzing xD)
