Ebb and Flow Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Freddytheclosetmonster 

I believe he does not want to take on the responsabilities of growing up: getting a shitty job that is respected, getting married when it is the right time, having children at the right time, the stess of being seen as achieving.

bird=him. wind=stressing to achieve success in the eyes of his peers and critics. Flock=The majority of people that do live life working their hardest, breaking bones, just to do the respected thing at the respected time. letting the winds have their way=let those things happen when they happen. lets not be worried by time and respect. You shouldn't have to fight a pace to achieve hapiness and fulfilment.

i wish she'd say no. = his girlfriend most likely (,but could be anyone). Just someone that wants that lifestyle. Maybe a girlfriend that wants to get married just because of their accumilated time together as a couple, or even a baby.

Ebb and flow means to waver back and forth from good state to bad state of something. Therefore, he is most likely saying that there will always be good and bad moments in life. No matter how hard you try to make it all good moments.
