Senseless in a new world (5)
I believe the answer is:
inane
'senseless' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'in a new world' is the wordplay.
'a new world' becomes 'ane' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'in'+'ane'='INANE'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for inane that I've seen before include "unimaginative" , "Absurd" , "Vacuous, silly" , "Moronic" , "Lacking meaning" .)
