Cover art for Breakthrough lyrics by Modest Mouse

I agree with the man on TV It's totally about blind faith. First off the "It was well intentioned but bad advice " This reminds me of when a morman comes to my door and asks me if i have found jesus.. he has the best intensions but in my point of veiw its bad advice. "Open the curtain and let in some sky it's almost half past two, and you can tell by the light Open your window, and let in the atmosphere! Let it breakthrough, oh let breakthrough..." I think its implying that some peoples blind faith is scewing the logical thought like a lack of oxygen, so open the window let in some air. "I was inverted, I mean converted I mean I don't understand." I think this implies that alot of people dont even understand what they are doing and just simply have "blind faith"

thats just how i see the song :)
