for the longest time this whole song sounded like complete gobbledygook. just looking at it now i randomly thought, maybe it's about him, and possibly someone else, dying? "happier to see it's gone" as in their life..."floating above your house" like a ghost would..."pair of brown eyed ghosts" could be him and whoever he's with, "tapping the shadows out" of them could be their uncertainties from their life or something..."clouds can't stay where they are born, winds push them so far from home" might refer to having to move on to the afterlife. or, i could be completely wrong about all of it.
