It’s about when a person dies and this line says it:
“As I look out in the window”
“And see everyone waving below”
It indicates that he/she is gone in this world and looks down from below and see people waving (crying).
[Verse 1]
I'm wishing there was more time
To maybe catch another sunrise
But I think I'm on the next flight
A little late to press rewind
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause my honesty is trending
My pocket's getting full
But I still feel empty
I know I should be flexin'
Billion dollar bills
[Chorus]
But I'm not Mr. Brightside
I don't deserve a spotlight
I'm dreaming on a red-eye
As reality seems to fly by
I miss texting my best friends
But my phone's on airplane mode
And I feel so alone
As I look out the window
And see everyone waving below
[Verse 2]
I wish you could see the view
From nine clouds high
Instead of what you see
At your nine to five
I know we swore we'd never leave each other's side
But I must say goodbye
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause my honesty is trending
My pocket's getting full
But I still feel empty
I know I should be flexin'
Diamonds on my soles
[Chorus]
But I'm not Mr. Brightside
I don't deserve a spotlight
I'm dreaming on a red eye
As reality seems to fly by
I miss texting my best friends
But my phone's on airplane mode
And I feel so alone
As I look out the window
And see everyone wavin' below
[Bridge]
Something this good can't come fast enough
But I'm getting kinda lost in the rush
Lost in the rush, oh
Something this good can't come fast enough
But I'm getting kinda lost in the rush
Lost in the rush
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not Mr. Brightside
I don't deserve a spotlight
I'm dreaming on a red-eye
As reality seems to fly by
I miss texting my best friends
But my phone's on airplane mode
And I feel so alone
As I look out the window
And see everyone wavin' below
