Birds Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Two hearts, one valve
Pumpin' the blood, we were the flood
We were the body and
Two lives, one life
Stickin' it out, lettin' you down
Makin' it right
[Pre-Chorus]
Seasons, they will change
Life will make you grow
Dreams will make you cry, cry, cry
Everything is temporary
Everything will slide
Love will never die, die, die
[Chorus]
I know that
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Birds fly in every direction
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I hope to see you again
[Verse 2]
Sunsets, sunrises
Livin' the dream, watchin' the leaves
Changin' the seasons
Some nights I think of you
Relivin' the past, wishin' it'd last
Wishin' and dreamin'
[Pre-Chorus]
Seasons, they will change
Life will make you grow
Death can make you hard, hard, hard
Everything is temporary
Everything will slide
Love will never die, die, die
[Chorus]
I know that
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Birds fly in every direction
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I hope to see you again
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Birds fly in every direction
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
So fly high, so fly high
[Bridge]
When the moon is lookin' down
Shine that light up for your ground
I'm flyin' up to let you see
That the shadow cast is me
[Chorus]
I know that
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Birds fly in every direction
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I hope to see you again
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Birds fly in every direction
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
So fly high, so fly high
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
So fly high, so fly high
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
So fly high, so fly high
Two hearts, one valve
Pumpin' the blood, we were the flood
We were the body and
Two lives, one life
Stickin' it out, lettin' you down
Makin' it right
Seasons, they will change
Life will make you grow
Dreams will make you cry, cry, cry
Everything is temporary
Everything will slide
Love will never die, die, die
I know that
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Birds fly in every direction
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I hope to see you again
Sunsets, sunrises
Livin' the dream, watchin' the leaves
Changin' the seasons
Some nights I think of you
Relivin' the past, wishin' it'd last
Wishin' and dreamin'
Seasons, they will change
Life will make you grow
Death can make you hard, hard, hard
Everything is temporary
Everything will slide
Love will never die, die, die
I know that
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Birds fly in every direction
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I hope to see you again
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Birds fly in every direction
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
So fly high, so fly high
When the moon is lookin' down
Shine that light up for your ground
I'm flyin' up to let you see
That the shadow cast is me
I know that
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Birds fly in every direction
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I hope to see you again
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Birds fly in every direction
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
So fly high, so fly high
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
So fly high, so fly high
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
So fly high, so fly high

I think this song is about the death of a loved one to death and the one who passed is the bird flying around looking down on the one left behind “I’m flying up to let you see that the shadow cast is me”. The song is sung in the birds perspective, the one who passed away giving reassurance to the one left behind.
What a masterpiece this song is! Actually the writer describes the philosophy of life through these abstract lines including a mom and her child as the characters. Mom is the first and best teacher in our life. She teaches us how to live, how to fight for our betterment, how to mould ourselves with changing situations(here, changing seasons). Mom wants to teach her child that everything is temporary in life. But one thing is eternal throughout, LOVE. At the end, it has been shown in the video that the mom has died. But after a while, we get a clear idea that she is still alive in her child in the form of all her teachings and affection she has left for her child. She would always guide her child and help him to fly even higher, higher and would see her child kissing the skies which is metaphorical to getting the essence of life....
I really loved this song and the meaning conveyed by it ...According to me I got it as it's meaning is that everything is temporary ...Seasons would make you change,life will make you grow and change will make you cry,when this verse comes in second portion we can see people laughing at boy but all that is temporary ,all sympathy you get in form of love will only never die...Even when you wish you could have relived the past understand the fact Seasons change but birds fly and keep moving on and in different directions and because of this wish lets hope to see again...Here mother is shown who to save the kid who is distressed by the fact how everyone treats and can't move on takes a flight to show mother he can escape this fact that we should not be stuck on thing...Seasons keep changing..Mother to save the kid dies and their directions also are different(birds fly in different directions since mother dies) and the love is there immortal and we hope to meet again to show how everything is connected through love...So fly high shows kid flying high and meets the soul of his mother and learns the fact by this happening that we should move on even in difficulties
I think the meaning of this song is about losing a loved one
