Cloud Lyrics

Lyric discussion by jasonchrist 

Cover art for Cloud lyrics by Sia

This song's chorus sounds so optimistic, but the verses and the lyrics are so sad ("Throwing stones at birds who struggle to take flight"). I understand that they may just be a metaphor for an extremely pessimistic person who likes to put other people down because their own life sucks. The person who is the "dark cloud" likes to rain (no pun intended) on everyone else's parade.
