One of three bonus tracks on the deluxe edition of Origins, “Birds” muses on fading memories and a couple’s gradual parting of ways and promises eternal love, using a metaphor of migrating birds; a natural part of life. Likely inspired by Dan Reynolds‘ changing relationship with his wife Aja Volkman, Dan insisted they would remain best friends even after their temporary split. Although not a single from the album, the song appears to be a fan favorite, being broadcast on numerous international radio stations.
Birds Lyrics;
[Verse 1]
Two hearts, one valve
Pumpin’ the blood, we were the flood
We were the body and
Two lives, one life
Stickin’ it out, lettin’ you down
Makin’ it right
Two hearts, one valve
Pumpin’ the blood, we were the flood
We were the body and
Two lives, one life
Stickin’ it out, lettin’ you down
Makin’ it right
[Pre-Chorus]
Seasons, they will change
Life will make you grow
Change will make you cry…..
Everything is temporary
Everything will slide
Love will never die……
Seasons, they will change
Life will make you grow
Change will make you cry…..
Everything is temporary
Everything will slide
Love will never die……
[Verse 2]
Sunsets, sunrises
Livin’ the dream, watchin’ the leaves
Changin’ the seasons
Some nights I think of you
Relivin’ the past, wishin’ it’d last
Wishin’ and dreamin’
Sunsets, sunrises
Livin’ the dream, watchin’ the leaves
Changin’ the seasons
Some nights I think of you
Relivin’ the past, wishin’ it’d last
Wishin’ and dreamin’
[Bridge]
When the moon is lookin’ down
Shinin’ light upon your ground
I’m flyin’ up to let you see
That the shadow cast is me
When the moon is lookin’ down
Shinin’ light upon your ground
I’m flyin’ up to let you see
That the shadow cast is me
