High Above
Rudi Pell Axel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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'
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
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.

On the horizon there's a starlight
There's a glimmer of hope on the horizon
Shining down to the world
A beacon of light shining a path to salvation
They're hiding faces in the daylight
They are living a lie to conform to society
Movin' on, like a bird
Moving forward with hope and purpose, like a bird in flight
No believing
Doubt about what the future holds
A dream or just a fantasy
Wondering if it's all just a dream
No returnin'
There's no going back to the past
Heading into tomorrow...far away
Moving forward into the future, which is far from the present
Flyin' high above
Rising above the problems and obstacles of life
Runnin' fast as an arrow
Making quick, decisive choices to avoid danger
On the wings of a rainbow
Going forward with purpose and hope, symbolized by a rainbow
Where the eagle meets the condor
Where two different cultures or worlds meet
Through the thunders, wind and rain
Enduring the harshness of life
People're sayin' there'll be peace on earth
A desire for world peace
All their prayers were not in vain
There's hope for a better future
