| It's about Candy Darling, her life and death. | |

You all are terribly silly people. The whole album is about Candy Darling, a transgender icon, who died of lymphoma, it was a terrible, heartbreaking death, being dysphoric her whole life, hating her body, the place she was stuck in. She is the bird. She is also described as a bird in other songs, par exemple Bird Gerhl. Knowing the true meaning you can however interpret the song as you wish. This song is about Candy Darling, just like every other song on I Am a Bird Now. |
