Cover art for Slow Glass lyrics by Noah and the Whale

First days of Spring is a masterpiece! The first few times I listened to it, I was mesmerized. The whole flow from the recently broken heart to the emotional processing of the relationship, that finally comes to terms with the last 3 songs. "Slow Glass" is about a a new perspective. Suddenly the writer sees the relationship with different eyes. He views his former self as a blind man, walking in an obscure reality, that is managed and manipulated by the negative dynamic between him and his special lady friend. He wakes up to find a different self, the veil has been lifted and his view is clear now. How many of us have had this same experience. Thinking that reality is one thing, only to find at a later point in life that we were totally wrong in interpreting it.
