When the candles burn down worlds turn to stone
That's when you've got to fly, fly away home
This verse says that the world is cruel and people are cold bastards. But you should simply avoid them, run away to where they can't get you, and never lose hope. People will try to bring you down, hurt you, but you have to be like the yellow bird, flying on the blue sky. He is not looking down, he is with his head up, proud and happy.
Spread your broken wings and learn how to fly
Take the diamonds from the sun,
Wipe the tear from your eye
