i think this song has a religous side to it.
hes "shipwrecked in a sea of faces theres a dreamy world up there,dear friends in higher places, carry me away from here.". that could mean he's in a bad position with other ppl (sex,drugs, suicide, ect.) and he wants someone from a higher place(god) to take him away from it all and help him with his problems.he was also thinking of heaven,with the dreamy world."travel light,let the sun eclipse you,cause your flight is about to leave", he has to ask for help quickly before its to late for him and he needs to travel light(death,cause you dont have anything when you die)and dont let the sun bother him,eclipse it,cause theres a better place than that. .and theres adventure along the way to helping himself.the courus with the birds eye view could mean that he's going to heaven, so he has to "kiss the forest floor goodbye" as if saying goodbye to earth, cause he's going to a better place, "take to the sky". "on the heels of war and wonder,theres a stormy world up there,u cant whisper above the thunder,but you can fly,anywhere"that could mean he's,again,in a bad position(war)and needs help(wonder), yet theres a "storm" (satan)in the way of him getting help from God.yet he "can fly anywhere".he can do as he chooses,yet will he do the right thing?and a "picture painting a thousand words", that could mean the Bible,and taking a "Breath of myth(what ppl dont think of the bible that is true) and mystery(what ppl wonder about the true facts and how to figure them out,and "dont look back" could be that once u make your desision, you cant look bask and doubt. "theres a realm above the trees, where the lost are finally found", the ppl of earth were lost, yet once they got to Heavan, they were found and cleansed. "touch your feathers to the breeze, and leave the ground", could be someone wanting to go to heaven, and they finally do.
This was all just now thought of, and i think its a good way to put a song together, without too many ppl noticing it.
I think its more about just going on an adventure with friends or family, and he mentions birds so much bc he wrote it for that owl movie. Then again, he does reference god in a lot of his songs
