| Vienna Teng – Drought Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| I always thought of the "white sheets" as funeral shrouds, as well as snow - a sort of "all right, you may as well kill me, it'd be easier than struggling through this" mentality. I think I like the optimism of your interpretation a bit more. x'D | |

I would actually argue that the radio being in the US makes the song all the more poignant. For a disaster of this magnitude to happen in one part of the country, and for the rest of the country to turn their heads and ignore it because they can't believe that such a thing would happen in a developed country, would be both heartbreaking and enraging. Such a reaction is unsettling to think about, particularly since the song sort of forces listeners to wonder how they would react, themselves. Of course, the radio might be in some other country entirely. There's no telling, really. But still. |
