Cover art for One Ton lyrics by Common Rider

this song is about operation ivy for me

i think it's mostly about how jesse believes music can change the world, how "one song sung" can weigh "one ton" and have a physical effect on the world.

also

"Music is an indirect force for change, because it provides an anchor against human tradgedy in this sense. It works towards a reconciled world."

this song is talking about a song being a one ton anchor
