"Election Echoes" explores the lingering feelings and quiet divisions that can follow conflict, like the subtle static after an argument or the unspoken tension in the air. Through melancholic melodies and ethereal sounds, the song reflects on building walls, the difficulty of communication ("Seems we've forgotten how to simply talk it through"), and the deep longing for reconnection and understanding in troubled times. It captures that "funny feeling" of separation, hoping to tear down the barriers and let the light back in.

**Lyrics:**
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Morning paper, troubled news again
Same old story, different faces play the game
Seems this arguing will never really stop
Someone tell me, where's that little dove of peace?
Cup of tea grows cold, a reflection in the pane
Listening to the sky begin to rain again
And the radio just buzzes on the air
Is anybody listening out there?
[Chorus]
Oh, these funny feelings since the argument etched inside my head
The sharp things said we can't take back instead
Building walls up high between us that block the good things shining through
Seems we've forgotten how to simply talk it through.
[Verse 2]
Saw old Mrs. Higgins yesterday
Used to chat, she simply looked away
This sad silence now keeps us worlds apart
Feeling like we're walking near the edge, you know?
Different views and different tunes they play
Hard to see the person past the things they say
Just the angry shouts ringing in my ears
Drowning out the music of the years.
[Chorus]
Oh, these funny feelings since the argument etched inside my head
The sharp things said we can't take back instead
Building walls up high between us that block the good things shining through
Seems we've forgotten how to simply talk it through.
[Bridge]
Maybe if we sat and talked awhile?
Shared a cup of tea and maybe tried a smile?
Find some little thing we still agree on
Maybe lend a helping hand along?
[Chorus]
Oh, these echoes fading, some still linger
Wish we could end this time of feeling out of touch and on our own
Tear the walls down, let the lovely sunlight through
Me and you, yeah, start anew, me and you...
[Outro]
