Some kind of religious disagreement was keeping Angra from being united with this person he sings about. This metaphorical song describes eagles having more freedom than humans do. He wishes to be one of the eagles and hopes for his significant other to be the second eagle.
[Verse 1]
Rainy clouds covered up the sunny sky
Now I know I'll sleep alone tonight
Tears and prayers will be taken by the rain
Fear and loneliness in my dreams
[Verse 2]
And I know I'll never be the same
Living this tragedy insane
All I wanna be is to be free with you, with me
I don't blame the fate but it's too hard to face the truth
[Pre-Chorus]
It was all just like paradise
Just like we wanted it to be
Far beyond the reason rest our lives
Eternity denies the guilt of reality senselessness
[Chorus]
Fly high reaching skies
Two eagles flying to be free, woah
Moments of madness will be left behind
The same horizon but in different lands
Fly high reaching skies
Two eagles flying to be free
Moments of madness will be left behind
The same horizon but in different lands
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
It was all just like paradise
Just like we wanted it to be, oh!
Far beyond the reason rest our lives
Eternity denies the guilt of reality senselessness!
[Chorus]
Fly high reaching skies
Two eagles flying to be free, oh oh!
Moments of madness will be left behind
The same horizon but in different lands
Fly high reaching skies!
Two eagles flying to be free, oh oh!
Moments of madness will be left behind
The same horizon but in different lands
