Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Half Hearted Hero's song "Fractals" are a beautiful reminder of the scale of perspective. From high up in an airplane, trees appear as little specks- a reminder that our point of view shapes our understanding of the world around us. The concept of fractals refers to patterns that repeat at different levels of magnification, and the lyrics suggest that this idea of scale applies not only to the physical world, but to our emotional experiences as well.
