True Freedom Lyrics
If I was a poet
Or maybe a king Then I could explain to you how my heart sings Whenever I look in your eyes Like a hummingbird trapped in my chest, I would say is Just how it felt on that glorious day When I first , when I first saw you Together we’ll know true freedom From all earthly constraints Dissolving brilliance Bright colors In the picture God paints Here take these pills I don’t know what they do And I’ve already swallowed more than a few I promise your mother she won’t even notice they’re gone And what was that song that Youth Minister Ted Sang after his sermon It’s been stuck in my head The chorus went, it went something like this Together we’ll know true freedom From all earthly constraints Dissolving brilliance, bright colors In the picture God paints The popular kids that ignored us at school Will whisper our names as the tears fill the pool We’ll look down upon and laugh As rosy cheeked angels join us in cheers Where no one is lonely and there’s nothing to fear I wish I could go there right now I wish I could go touch you right now Together we’ll know true freedom From all earthly constraints Dissolving brilliance Bright colors In the picture God paints If I was a poet Or maybe a king Then I could explain to you how my heart sings Whenever I look in your eyes |

I wish I could go there right now
I wish I could go touch you right now,” seems to imply that his love is lost...if you're thinking about the song literally it seems she may have died from the pills (either accidentally or suicide). If you take the song figuratively this could be a person that isn’t dead at all but was someone he loved so deeply and thought he was going to spend the rest of his life with, only to be devastated when things didn't work out. I like to view the song in the figurative way. When you find someone that seems like they're your true love and it ends up not working out you feel emotionally devastated; I think this song portrays a strong sense of this devastation
…does anyone have any other ideas...this is just what I could squeeze out of it

It's like three parts there. First he meets her, it's a true love they want eachother, thus the "hummingbird part". Then the pills. It's like no one accepted their love, it couldn't go through, so they commited suicide (or plan to do). And then they "look down upon and laugh" like it's some kind of victory for them because they are finaly together despite all the other people. The "true freedom from all earthly constraints".
That's my poor and literal interpretation xD
great song
