This song is seeing all of the signs of something that is about to come that is going to be devastating. Instead of the cool rain that will calm everything down, the birds signal something bad on the horizon. I think the skins and burning spheres are meant as humans-- skins being obvious and spheres being red eyes. The girl in a relationship is having an issue that the man sees as ruining them both and knows it's only a matter of time...
