about

This song is about watching the news and the grim state of our world coupled with the predominant focus of our media; disaster, tragedy, blame, trouble...

(...is that the only narrative really....?)

lyrics

From my window on the world
every day the same
Suffering and sadness
and the laying of the blame

I find that I recoil
from my window on the world
tired of the same
injury and pain

Oh my hard heart...
(closed to cope)...

Ask a question of the sky
from my window on the world
was this as you intended
I watch it float off in the wind

So do I tolerate the broken?
Am I desensitised to pain?
For through my window on the world,
Every day's the same

Oh my hard heart...
(closed to cope)...

how can you care about fault?
when the damage is done
And I've barely even felt yet,
yes my heart is just begun.
