Map of the World Lyrics

Cover art for Map of the World lyrics by Monsters of Folk

Do ya'll think it's - "A WIDE screen reason to look the other way" or "A WHITE screen reason to look the other way". I'm not really sure which one makes more sense : )

I hear wide screen... white screen doesn't even really make any sense

"WIDE" screen = the plasma/LCD televisions we have today, and the numbing distraction they offer. Also, I'm hearing "Clean SLATE, second chance", not "Clean SLEET". Clean slate makes much more sense.
