Analysis of Fly

Fly, then fly, oh soul
Into the vast, starry night
Quickly you slip loose

From earthly anguish
What do your eyes see now then?
Can I imagine?

Can I be happy?
Are you finally at peace
Oh wandering soul?

Do I pray mercy?
Or do I pray for justice?
Am I that bitter?

You finally left
You were a thorn in our sides
And yet a rose too

When I see my faults
I see my need for mercy
I cannot condemn

So fly to heaven
Into light unimagined
Joy, peace and comfort

I remember you
I think of you often still
My little brother
