about this song

"The Wheel,” is the penultimate track on The Hope Six Demolition Project. "The Wheel" is most likely based on past events in Kosovo, as it makes references to a poem she wrote in her book The Hollow of the Hand. As well as the fact that 28,000 international troops were sent to invade Kosovo in 1990. The song features a call-and-response lyric about the disappearance of 28,000 people “lost upon a revolving wheel… of metal chairs”.
