The other is that the birds could be a metaphor for a relationship, a friendship OR a romantic relation, and the wire is that connection between the two people but also the shackles keeping one or both from doing what they need to be satisfied. Read more on Last.fm.

Two Birds Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Two birds on a wire
One tries to fly away
And the other watches him close from that wire
He says he wants to as well
But he is a liar
[Chorus]
I'll believe it all
There's nothing I won't understand
I'll believe it all (I'll)
I won't let go of your hand
[Verse 2]
Two birds on a wire (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
One says, "C'mon," and the other says, "I'm tired
The sky is overcast and I'm sorry." (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
One more or one less
Nobody's worried
[Chorus]
I'll believe it all
There's nothing I won't understand
I'll believe it all (I'll)
I won't let go of your hand
[Post-Chorus]
Ah, ah, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh (Oh), oh (Oh), oh (Oh), oh
[Verse 3]
Two birds of a feather
Say that they're always gonna stay together
But one's never going to let go of that wire (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
He says that he will
But he's just a liar
Two birds on a wire
One tries to fly away and the other
Watches him close from that wire
He says he wants to as well, but he is a liar
[Outro]
Two birds on a wire
One tries to fly away and the other
