    Okay, so my interpretation of this is that the figure and the bird are two friends who are traveling and exploring the world. One day they end up somewhere comfortable and nice, and end up staying a while. Soon though, they notice the tree, symbolizing that they've put down roots in the place. While it's a good place, and the friends both like it, they want to keep exploring. So the figure eats the tree, symbolizing keeping the memories of the place special and safe inside them, while being able to overcome their fear of leaving the safety and comfort of the place they've come to love. The friends set out on their journey of exploration again, while the camera pans up to show all the other travelers who put down roots and then were too scared to uproot themselves again for the unknown.

    • @sofialaya596
      @sofialaya596 5 років тому +14

      @Leaf 0910 it doesn't represet it perfectly, but it's a bit related at least, the animation being like a storybook with fantasy for kids, a bedtime story, and the paper ships are a thing very related to imagination as well

    After i heard this song, i git curious as ive heard most of these tales except for the girl who sang by day but by night she ate tear soup. I didnt quite get it at first as i looked up the first half, but once I looked up the second half to see better results i was hit by something i wish i had been told growing up. Tear soup is a childrens book that talks about dealing with depression that feels like has been forgotten. I really recommend listening to the audio book on here for in those 15 minutes it really changed me.

    *《×Lyrics×》*
    *[verse one]*
    Legend has it that the moss grows on the north side of the trees
    Well, legend has it that when the rains come down, all the worms come up to breathe
    Legend has it that when the sunbeams come, all the plants they eat them with their leaves
    Well, legend has it that the world spins round on an axis of twenty-three degrees.
    *[chorus]*
    But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon
    Or the cow that hopped the planets, while straddling a spoon
    Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune
    And swapped her songs with swallows, while riding on a broom.
    Well we can all learn things both many and a-few
    From that old hunched-up woman who lived inside a shoe
    Or the girl that sang by day and by night she ate tear soup
    Or, the man who drank too much and he got the brewers' droop.
    *[verse two]*
    Come listen up all ye fair maids to how the moral goes
    Nobody knew and nobody knows
    How the pobble was robbed of his twice five toes
    Or how the dong came to own a luminous nose
    Or how the jumblies went to sea in a sieve that they rowed
    And came to shore by the chankly bore, where the bong trees grow
    Where the jabberwocky's small green tentacles do flow
    And the quanglewangle plays, in the rain and the snow.
    *[chorus]*
    But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon
    Or the cow that hopped the planets, while straddling a spoon
    Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune
    And swapped her songs with swallows, while riding on a broom.
    Well we can all learn things both many and a-few
    From that old hunched-up woman who lived inside a shoe
    Or the girl that sang by day and by night she ate tear soup
    Or, the man who drank too much and he got the brewers' droop.

    I like this. What it makes me think of is that the lyrics are saying there are many stories you can learn from and the visuals tell a story of how as you go through life you accumulate lots of those specs of light that could be ideas or thoughts or something like that, and they could be positive or negative but the further you go the more of them seem to follow. And sometimes you have one of the thoughts that sprouts into something bigger that stops you from continuing to move in the direction you were going, and you can’t shove it aside or just pull it out, the only way to keep moving forward is to accept it as part of yourself or else it will continue to spiral out of control and you‘ll become stuck on that one thing

    I don’t know what the creator had in mind for this but my personal head cannon is that the monster was cursed to continue this for eternity. The little white lights actually really like him so they try to end his sadness by stopping the boat, but since the monster is cursed, he gets sort of possessed and has to keep going any way possible. Any way including self-sacrifice.
