This is one of those tricky songs to figure out because the perspectives are always changing. but it looks to be about a boy who has plenty of time to wait for a stupid girl to get smart enough to hide from the things that some very bad powerful people are doing to her, which they've done to her before. These powerful people own everything, including the girl, who seems to be the bird who can sing who's going to fly away. Through it all, one or both of these kids taunts these powerful people asking who'll be their friend when it all comes tumbling down for them. I'll also guess from the picture of Jesus on the record cover that all of this has to do with the Second Coming and the final Fall of Babylon foretold in the Bible's revelations because the song ends with "Harder than you think, sooner than you think, you'll see it's gonna come down." That makes sense because she keeps repeating "I died happy" throughout. So basically it's a song about the end of the world which is coming soon.
