| "Everyone's a building burning With no one to put the fire out. Standing at the window looking out, Waiting for time to burn us down. Everyone's and ocean drowning With no one really to show how." Favorite part of the song... | |

| I alway thought it was"... Window, from the RAIN we're bound to..." I think it would be so much cooler if the lyrics were rain instead. Room we're bound to makes me think of 1984 | |

| The Tetons are a mountain range. I'm only assuming that THOSE are the Tetons of the song's namesake. Maybe it's about the absurdity of a scapegoat and looking for ANYONE or ANYTHING to blame, such as a mountain range, etc. | |

| Wait, when he says: Everyone's and ocean drowning With no one really to show how. They might get a litle better If they turned themselves into a cloud." I maybe wrong but doesnt water from the ocean go up into the clouds or some crap like that. (sorry i havent really studied it or anything just heard it from a friend some time) | |

| first of, nobody previous to me except the guy who knows "tetons" refers to the souix indian tribe should be expressing their opinions. the song is about white man blaming their corruption and greed upon others, the scapegoats. | |

| Namely, the marketing era, emerged as a concept in the 1950's which brought on "mainstream media, money hungry people, all the 'bad' stuff in essence"...Isaac is partially blaming the Tetons for everything bad that is going on today, whether what he says is true or not, he is one hell of a lyricist.....There ya go, beat this definition of this song!!!! | |
