The painbirds are vultures, or carrion birds. They spiral down, like carrion birds, divide the flesh, typically finish off creatures who are still barely alive. Hopefully this gives some people more insight into this song. Perhaps somebody dying in the heat, waiting for rain. Run with it.

@painblanket there are also birds called “rainbirds” and this could be a play on that, as well. Instead of rainbirds, the speaker gets painbirds.
