Cover art for Peacetime Resistance lyrics by Kings of Convenience

Sounds like someone wants to be the center of attention, and is pushy. (a viewer needs distance) And as soon as they are out of their comfort zone or seen for what they don't want to be seen for, they feel insecure. In the past, people were closer because they weren't together that much, but today, we can be together more, and when we spend together, we see how different we are from each other, which can lead to problems. People should be open-minded and see how similar we all are to each other.
