Just a song about a man who sees a bird that can fly majestically through the sky into the sun, soaring above all of the worldly cares that bind the man to the earth. The man wonders if the bird knows what he doesn't about the meaning of life and the shape of things to come because the bird can fly so high and see what the man cannot see. The man thinks about how the bird doesn't ask why, but just flies through the sky in the moment. never worrying, even right up to the moment of death. And then the man thinks about his own sadness and all the things that weigh him down on life, and he can find no understanding. But he tells the bird to go on ahead and fly, because at least the bird knows how to be free, even though he can find no answers.
