High Above
Rudi Pell Axel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

On the horizon there's a starlight
Shining down to the world
They're hiding faces in the daylight
Movin' on, like a bird

No believing
A dream or just a fantasy
No returnin'
Heading into tomorrow...far away

Flyin' high above
Runnin' fast as an arrow
Flyin' high above
On the wings of a rainbow

Where the eagle meets the condor
Through the thunders, wind and rain




People're sayin' there'll be peace on earth
All their prayers were not in vain

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Rudi Pell Axel's song High above are about the desire to escape from the daily routine and the mundane world. The first line "On the horizon there's a starlight, shining down to the world" suggests the idea of hope and escape. The starlight represents a new sense of possibility that the singer sees in life. The line "They're hiding faces in the daylight, moving on, like a bird" further reinforces the concept of escape as it talks about people hiding their faces during the day and moving on. This creates the image of the faceless masses, who are all moving towards a common goal, but not knowing what that goal is.


The chorus of the song, "Flyin' high above, runnin' fast as an arrow, on the wings of a rainbow" is all about freedom and the ability to break free and fly beyond the limits of the mundane world. It is about the feeling of accomplishment and the joy of being able to soar high, leaving all worries and troubles behind.


The last verse, "Where the eagle meets the condor, through the thunders, wind and rain, people're sayin' there'll be peace on earth, all their prayers were not in vain" talks about hope and unity. The eagle and the condor are symbols of different cultures coming together as one. The line "People're sayin' there'll be peace on earth, all their prayers were not in vain" is about the belief that no matter how hard things get, hope and unity can conquer it all.
