Discover the story of the song > “Waving Through A Window” – Ben Platt

The protagonist sings about how he has learned to hold back and not show his true self to others in order to avoid being judged. He feels like he's always on the outside looking in and wonders if he'll ever be accepted for who he really is. He tries to reach out to others, but feels like he's waving through a window and no one is responding.
