about

A song about the Overton Window. The allowed range of political discourse is hurting us. We give way too much time to conservative ideas and culture war narratives. While the climate is changing for the worst, wealth inequality grows and the looming fascist threat gains power, it feels like humanity is wasting time. I'm frustrated about it.

lyrics

I'm sincere
Yeah I'm sincere

It's only
A whisper
A downgrade
A quick slur
The window were facing
Compacts lies
Just evading

But we're wasting time
(You're wasting time, you're wasted)

If you can't tell
It seems we'll never get it right
There's no safe spell found in the electric light
When the low roar
Overcomes this tyranny
We'll be long gone
Rest in power
Blessed be

Cos we're wasting time
(You're wasting time, you're wasted)

Consumed by wildfire
I believe it could be solved
That's all, that's all
Drowned by rising tides
I believe it could be solved
That's all, that's all

But you're wasting time
(You're wasting time, you're wasted)
