This world is just a dirty stain on your heart of glass

“The character of this story is an amazing person. Kind, caring, smart, who finds herself under a barrage of social media attacks”
Dusk stresses that writing Heart of Glass, manifested from his desire to help people around overcoming similar problems. He admits: “The song outlines how I’m rooting for this young lady, encouraging her to be strong and even ruthlessly and mercilessly fight back when and where she can.”
