Lyrics
Air full of feathers
A sense of lightness and delicacy in the atmosphere
Fluttering distant laughter
Distant laughter that echoes through the air
Air full of signs & strange magic
The air is filled with symbols and mysterious forces
Planets aligned in warning
Alignment of planets indicating a forewarning or cosmic influence
Trap door sprung beneath me
A sudden unexpected event or revelation
And I'm falling
A feeling of descending or losing control
But I'm rising..
Simultaneous rising and falling, perhaps suggesting a complex emotional state
Downwards into blue sky
Descending into a vast, open sky
I'm rising
A sense of ascent or improvement
Downwards into blue sky
Repeating the idea of descending into the blue sky
Re-entering the earth
Returning to the earthly realm
Comet's tail behind me
A metaphorical comet's tail, possibly symbolizing change or transformation
Signaling a birth
Signaling a new beginning or rebirth
The northern lights, all burning
The beauty and intensity of the northern lights
Hot & cold at the same time
Experiencing contrasting emotions simultaneously
My spirit, white & liquid
A description of the speaker's spirit as pure and fluid
And I have learned & I am learning
A declaration of ongoing learning and personal growth
But I'm rising
Reiteration of the theme of rising and falling
Downwards into blue sky
Continued ascent into the blue sky
I'm rising
Repeating the idea of rising into the blue sky
Downwards into blue sky
Continued descent into the vast sky
I am the other half
Identification of the speaker as the "other half"
And you are what I am for
Acknowledgment of a connection with someone else
I won't lie to you or hurt you
A commitment to honesty and non-harmful behavior
I'm not like that anymore
Declaring a change in the speaker's character
I am with you all the time now
Expressing constant presence and unity with someone
One soul. One mind. One heart.
Emphasizing the oneness of soul, mind, and heart
The other half cannot be parted
Asserting the inseparability of the "other half"
From the other half
Reiteration of the idea that one half cannot be detached from the other
From the other half
Final affirmation of the indivisibility of the "other half"
