Like a Bird
Embracing Freedom: A Journey Through Choices
Lyrics
She was like a bird
Expressing that she had a free-spirited and unrestrained nature, much like a bird.
She flew it through
Describing her movement through life, symbolized as flying.
Never settled for walking
Highlighting her preference for adventure over a settled and routine life.
And
Transitioning to a different aspect or thought in the narrative.
Tattooed silly thoughts
Describing her thoughts as unconventional or whimsical, likened to tattoos.
As if she were a canvas
Portraying her as a canvas, suggesting her life is a form of art.
Of a rebellious artist
Comparing her life choices to the rebellious creations of an artist.
She ran from the sun down on my leaves
Describing her movement away from sunlight, metaphorically indicating distancing or departure.
Yeah
Confirming the perception of her actions as described earlier.
At least that's what it seemd like
Expressing uncertainty about the accuracy of the narrator's perception.
I'm...
Indicating a pause or hesitation in the narrator's thoughts.
Trying to find if I was wrong
Expressing the narrator's attempt to reassess a situation or decision.
To lose my hold when you walked away
Reflecting on the narrator's emotional response to her departure.
Imagining spaces where you've gone
Picturing or imagining the places she might have gone after leaving.
What would've been if you'd chosen to stay
Contemplating the alternate scenario of her choosing to stay and its consequences.
Drink another drink
Suggesting a coping mechanism through consumption of alcohol.
And walls of smoke
Creating a visual of a smoky environment, possibly symbolizing confusion or obscurity.
In a world full of strangers
Describing a sense of alienation or unfamiliarity in a world full of strangers.
Forced to be in sync
Highlighting the necessity to conform to societal expectations or roles.
With acting roles
Connecting the need to conform with playing predefined roles in society.
That society gave us
Attributing societal roles as something imposed on individuals.
She ran from the sun down on my leaves
Repeating the earlier description of her distancing herself from sunlight.
Yeah
Reiterating the perception of her actions as described earlier.
At least that's what it felt like
Emphasizing the emotional impact or perception of her departure.
I'm
Indicating a pause or hesitation in the narrator's thoughts.
Trying to find if I was wrong
Reflecting on the narrator's attempt to reassess a situation or decision.
To lose my hold when you walked away
Repeating the emotional response to her departure.
Imagining spaces where you've gone
Reiterating the act of imagining the places she might have gone after leaving.
Would you still fly if you've chosen to stay
Pondering on whether she would still have the freedom to "fly" if she had chosen to stay.
