[Intro]
[Instrumental: Slow Electric Piano, Swirling Synth Pad, Soft Bass, Reverb Guitar]
[Spoken Vocal]
Perspective is a strange thing.
It feels like the center of everything.
But it might just be one point
on a much larger turning world.
[Verse 1]
The morning light is shifting
Across your bedroom wall
The same old street is changing
Though you may not see it all
[Pre-Chorus]
One step
(One frame)
One breath
(One name)
[Chorus]
From your point of view
(Is the world spinning ’round you?)
Do you look out your window and cry
(As the world keeps spinning by?)
Or do you see the motion
(As something passing through)
From your point of view
(Is the world spinning ’round you?)
[Verse 2]
The seasons keep on turning
Without a thought of pause
The trees adjust their posture
Without explaining cause
[Pre-Chorus]
One truth
(So near)
One doubt
(So clear)
[Chorus]
From your point of view
(Is the world spinning ’round you?)
Do you look out your window and cry
(As the world keeps spinning by?)
[Bridge]
[Music Drops to Piano and Ambient Pad]
[Build]
Spin
(Again)
Turn
(Spinnin’)
Shift
(Within)
Begin
[Instrumental Break]
[Swirling Synth Arpeggios]
[Echo Guitar Solo]
[Organ Swell]
[Final Chorus]
From your point of view
(Is the world spinning ’round you?)
Do you watch it fall apart
(Or see it coming through?)
The motion never stops
(It only changes hue)
From your point of view
(Is the world spinning ’round you?)
[Outro]
[Soft Piano, Fading Synth]
The world is not centered.
But every view is.
Spinning…
’round you…
About the Song
The new release of the day, “Spinning ‘Round You,” is a retro-futuristic take on relativity. It also contains a hidden message for climate science citizens: denialism.
When I was growing up, looking out your window wasn’t considered scientific evidence. Today, in many cases, it is. The changes have become that visible.
When confronted with a climate denialist, try asking a simple question:
“Have you looked out your window?”
