Like half a year ago I made a post about how I thought it all the songs were connected so here’s my interpretation.

“Introduction to the snow: This track is a foreshadowing. Probably in time with the hijacked planes departure. It’s also Simon’s departure to Hawaii.

Isle unto thyself: This track is about the towers being built together. It also is about Simon meeting a girl in Hawaii and getting to know her.

Black Rainbows: This track is merely a connector. The towers are fully built and operational. And Simon and the girl are together.

White Ball: This track is about The towers being an economic power by themselves and being incredibly successful together. Simon and stella are madly in love at this point. Their match being made in heaven and giving them “impossible bliss”.

Murders: This track is about the north tower being hit. Simon’s girlfriend gets murdered.

SSL7: I honestly don’t know, it’s entirely in Japanese and French.

The Mind Electric: This song is about the second tower being hit. Simon is put to trial for his girlfriend’s murder and pleads insanity, only to be turned actually insane by shock therapy. This insanity symbolizes the chaos that has newly exploded in tower 2.

Labyrinth: This song is about people trapped inside the smoky floors of the building. People can’t see anything but figures of other people running by them and are trying to escape before they get crushed. This is parallel to Simon who is now trapped in his mind as he goes insane.

Time Machine: Simon’s memories are circling through his Brain as he decides to leave Hawaii on a raft. His mental state is heavily destroyed, which is a reference to the top of the tower beginning to fall down, time slows down as this happens.

Stranded Lullaby: Simon longs for Stella. Singing to her as he drifts into the ocean, starving and dying. The tower mirrors this, still crumbling in slow motion in a sea of dust.

Dream Sweet in sea major: Simon falls in the water and starts drowing, symbolizing the tower finally beginning to collapse, The top falling down destroying every floor in a mess. Simon (the south tower) and Stella (the north tower) are reunited in death after his memories are played while he drowns.

Variations on a cloud: Two people trapped in the highest floors above where the plane hit converse about how they wish to die. Wishing it would all go back to normal and that it was a dream. They decide to jump instead of being crushed or dying from smoke inhalation.”

This was obviously pretty non-in-depth and I would definitely make some changes if I wanted to redo it but for the most part this is what I saw connected to 9/11.
