Bluebird
Escape the Illusion: Bluebird's Flight to Freedom
Lyrics
The streets, the signs are pointing all one way
The paths and indications in life all seem to guide in a singular direction.
But you don't realize just what they say
You fail to comprehend or understand the true messages or implications behind these signs.
You may fight, you may run, you may know what you've done
Despite efforts to resist or escape, you may be aware of the consequences of your actions.
It makes me feel so sad to think what I might've had
Reflecting on missed opportunities or unrealized potential brings deep feelings of sadness.
I watch the stars, I watch the sun, now I watch for anyone
Observing celestial bodies and seeking connection, yet remaining watchful for companionship.
But it's only make believe
All these hopes and yearnings, however, exist only as imagination or fantasy.
You work, you work, you work so hard and then
Despite dedicated effort and hard work,
Someone, someone will come around again
There's an expectation or hope for someone else to come back into your life.
You may think it's for real, but you know how you feel
Though something might seem genuine externally, internally you are aware of your true emotions.
The places that I go don't feel good anymore
The places you once found comfort or joy now lack their positive appeal.
I see it all rainbows in fall I see her face upon my wall
Seeing beauty amidst change (rainbows in fall) and cherishing someone's image on your wall.
But it's only make believe
However, these aspects exist only in the realm of imagination or illusion.
Fly away, bluebird fly away for me
Expressing a wish for a symbolic bluebird to depart on a journey on behalf of the speaker.
To a place somewhere far across the sea
To a distant location, far away from the current situation or troubles.
Fly away, far away, don't look back, go today
Encouraging the bluebird to fly away without hesitation or looking back.
The waves that crash upon the sand
Describing the crashing waves on the shore as a representation of change or transition.
Another place, a far off land
Referencing a different, distant place that is unfamiliar or remote.
And every day, I have to stay, but you are free
While the speaker remains bound or obligated, the bluebird is free to escape.
You could fly away
Highlighting the freedom the bluebird possesses to depart.
But it's only make believe
Yet, ultimately, this possibility remains confined to the realm of imagination or fantasy.
