The Kite
Soaring Thoughts: Embracing Highs and Lows in 'The Kite'
Lyrics
My head is higher than the kite, I wanna fly
Expressing a desire for elevation, both physically and metaphorically, seeking freedom and aspiration.
Next time I'm floating can you tell me I'm too high
Asking for awareness and intervention when reaching a point of excess or danger during a high or elevated experience.
You seem to like me when I'm stuck down on the floor
Noticing a preference or positive response from someone when in a vulnerable or low state.
Next time I'm floating can you stop me from having more, well
Requesting support in preventing further indulgence or escalation during a high or elevated state.
Cause you seem to think you've lost it all
Perceiving the belief that someone thinks they have lost everything.
And you seem to think your opinion matters at all
Observing a perception that someone believes their opinion is significant, even in challenging situations.
My head is higher than the cat, I wanna fly
Expressing a desire for elevation again, using a cat as a point of reference.
I seem to think that you were there when I was high
Recalling a belief that the person was present during a previous elevated experience.
I saw you stand and then you jumped off of that ledge
Remembering an instance where the person witnessed a risky action, perhaps symbolic of a daring move.
But now I feel I'm just a pawn to a fuckin' hedge, man
Feeling like a pawn, possibly manipulated or controlled, especially in contrast to a seemingly carefree hedge.
Cause you seem to think you've lost it all
Reiteration of the belief that someone thinks they have lost everything.
And you seem to think your opinion matters at all
Reiteration of the perception that someone believes their opinion matters in difficult circumstances.
I start losing my mind
Acknowledging a sense of mental unraveling or distress.
Every time... you fly
Linking the act of flying to emotional turmoil, possibly implying a connection with the person mentioned.
We start talking about times
Starting a discussion about past experiences, particularly those involving times of emotional intensity.
But I can't cry, more than you
Expressing emotional restraint, implying an inability to cry more than the person being addressed.
My head is higher than the kite I wanna fly
Repeating the desire for elevation, emphasizing the longing to fly.
Next time I'm floating can you tell me I'm too high
Reiterating the request for intervention when reaching a point of excess during an elevated experience.
You seem to like me when I'm stuck down on the floor
Pointing out the perceived liking of the person when in a low state.
Next time I'm floating can you stop me from having more, well
Requesting assistance in preventing further escalation during future elevated experiences.
