Please take a long hard look through your text book
'Cause I'm history When I strap my helmet on I'll be long gone 'Cause I've been dying to leave Yeah, I'll ride the range and hide All my loose change in my bedroom 'Cause riding a dirtbike down A turnpike always takes its toll on me I've had just about enough of quote "Diamonds in the rough" Because my backbone is paper thin Get me out of this cavern or I'll cave in If the bombs go off, The sun will still be shining Because we've heard it said that Every mushroom cloud has a silver lining Though I'm always undermining too deep to know Swallow a drop of gravel and blacktop 'Cause the road tastes like wintergreen The wind and the rain smell of oil and octane Mixed with stale gasoline I'll soak up the sound trying to sleep on the wet ground I'll get ten minutes give-or-take 'Cause I just don't foresee myself getting drowsy When cold integrity keeps me wide awake Get me out of this cavern of I'll cave in Get me out of this cavern of I'll cave in I'll keep my helmet on just in case my head caves in 'Cause if my thoughts collapse or my framework snaps It'll make a mess like you wouldn't believe Tie my handlebars to the stars so I stay on track And if my intentions stray I'll wrench them away Then I'll take my leave and I won't even look back I won't even look back |

If you`re the bird
whenever we pretend it`s summer Then I`m the worm I know the part, it`s such a bummer But fair is fair If my segments get separated I`ll scream and you`ll be there. Close your eyes (Close my eyes), slide the cotton off of your shoulder And feel the shine (feel the shine), I`m hooked so toss me over, and cast a line (oh I`ll try), Oh throw a party and greet my undersea friends (it depends), as they arrive (if they arrive) You and I left our troubles far behind (troubles far behind) But I still have just one more question on my mind For all my pals who live in all the oceans and the seas With friends like these well, who needs enemies? Da dat dah da da da da da da dat dah If I`m your boy let`s take a short cut we remember And we`ll enjoy pickin` apples in late september like we`ve done for years Then we`ll take a long walk through the corn field and I`ll kiss you, between the ears If you`re my girl Swirl me around your room with feeling And as we twirl, the glow in the dark stars on your ceiling will shine for us as love sweeps over the room cause we tend to make each other blush (you make me blush) You and I left our troubles far behind (troubles far behind) But I still have just one more question on my mind For all my pals who live in all the oceans and the seas With fronds like these well, who needs anenomes? You`re the bird and I`m the worm And it`s plain to see that we were meant to be We were meant to be Da dat dah da da da da da da dat dah If you`re the bird If you`re the bird Then I`m the worm We were meant to be |

Hello Seattle, I am a mountaineer In the hills and highlands I fall asleep in hospital parking lots And awake in your house Hello Seattle, I am a manteray Deep beneathe the blue waves I'll crawl the sandy bottom of Puget Sound And construct a summer home Hello Seattle, I am the cresant moon Shining down on your face I will disguise myself as a sleeping pill And descend inside of you Hello Seattle, I am a cold seahorse Feeling warm in your sand I sing about the tide and the ocean surf Rolling in the evening breeze Hello Seattle, I am an albatross on the docks and your boats I sail above your inlets and interstates Through the rain and open wind Hello Seattle, I am an old lighthouse Throwing beams of bright lights Red in the morning, blue in the evening sun Taken heed from everyone Hello Seattle, I am a mountaineer In the hills and highlands I fall asleep in hospital parking lots Take me above your light Carry me through the night Hold me secure in flight Sing me to sleep tonight Take me above you light (Hello Seattle I am) Carry me through the night (a mountaineer, In the hills) Hold me secure in flight (and highlands I fall asleep in hospital) Sing me to sleep tonight (parking lots and awake)

Stands and gears, oh how the daisies bloom
When chandeliers light up the engine room Can you feel the drops as it starts to rain There's an underwater Ferris wheel where I found the missing link to this island chain Home will always be here, unseen, outta sight Where I disappear and hide I think dreamy things as I'm waving goodbye So I'll spread out my wings and fly Home is a boxcar and it's so far out of reach Hidden under umbrella beach Home will always be here, unseen, outta sight Where I disappear and hide I think dreamy things as I'm waving goodbye So I'll spread out my wings and fly I'll spread my wings and fly Home is a boxcar and it's so far out of reach Hidden under umbrella beach |

I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light
어제저녁 눈을 떳을때 나는 어두운 빛아래있는 너를 봤다 Walking down by the bay, on the shore, 해안을 걸으며, staring up at the planes that aren’t there anymore 더이상 있지않는 비행기를 보면서 I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold 나는 저녁이 깊어지고 너가 차가워지는것을 느꼇다 Like an introvert, I drew my over shirt 내향적인사람처럼, 나는 윗옷을 입었다 Around my arms and began to shiver violently before 나의 팔주변은 심하게 떨렷고 You happened to look and see the tunnels all around me 너가 나의 이런모습을 보고 또 내주변에있는 터널을 보았겟지. Running into the dark underground 어둠속 지하로 달려가면서 All the subways around create a great sound 모든 전철들은 엄청난 소리를 내었다 To my motion fatigue: farewell 나의 몸에 누젹되어있던 피곤에게 말하였다: 안녕 With your ear to a seashell 너의 귀를 바다조개에 가져다대면 You can hear the waves in underwater caves 너는 바다속 동굴 소리를 들을수있을것이다. As if you actually were inside a saltwater room 너가 진짜로 바닷물방안에 있었기때문에 Time together is just never quite enough 같이 보냇던 시간은 절때 조용하지못햇지. When you and I are alone, I’ve never felt so at home 너와 내가 혼자였을때, 나는 집에있다는 느낌을 받지못했어. What will it take to make or break this hint of love 무엇이 이 사랑의 암시를 만들거나 없애버릴수있을까 We need time, only time 우리는 오직 시간만이 필요해 When we’re apart whatever are you thinking of? 너가 생각하는것처럼 우리가 해어진다면? If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone? 만약 이것이 내가말하는 집이라면, 왜 이렇게 외로운걸까? So tell me darling, do you wish we’d fall in love? 나의 사랑, 나한테 말해줘, 당신은 우리가 사랑에빠지는것을 원해? All the time, All the time... 언제나, 언제나.... Can you believe that the crew has gone and 배의 한일원이 가버리고 wouldn’t let me sign on? 나를 꼼짝못하게한다는 것을 믿을수있겟어? All my islands have sunk in the deep, 나의 모든 섬은 바다속으로 침몰해버렷어, so I can hardly relax or even oversleep 그래서 나는 전혀 편히쉴소없고 잘수없어. I feel as if I were home some nights when we count all the ship lights 나는 배의빛 갯수를 샐때면 내가 마치 집에온것같은 기분이 들어 I guess I’ll never know why sparrows love the snow We’ll turn off all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow 우리는 모든불을 끌것이고, 이 무도실을 빛나게 만들거야. |

I brush my teeth and look in the mirror
And laugh out loud as I'm beaming from ear to ear I'd rather pick flowers instead of fights And rather than flaunt my style I'd flash you a smile of clean pearly whites I've been to the dentist a thousand times so I know the drill I smooth my hair, sit back in the chair But somehow I still get the chills "Have a seat" he says pleasantly As he shakes my hand, and practically laughs at me "Open up nice and wide" He says peering in with a smirk he says "Don't have a fit this wil just pinch a bit" As he tries not to grin When hygienist leave on long vacations That's when denstists scream and lose their patients Talking only brings the tooth aches on Because I say the stupidest things So if my resolve goes South I'll swallow my pride with an aspirin, and shut my mouth Golf and alcohol don't mix And that's why I don't drink and drive Because good grief I'd knock out my teeth And have to kiss my smile goodbye I've been to the dentist a thousand times so i know the drill I smooth my hair, sit back in the chair But somehow I still get the chills -Dental Care of "Owl City" Shiree |

Breathe and I'll carry you away into the velvet sky And we'll stir the stars around and watch them fall away Into the Hudson Bay and plummet out of sight and sound The open summer breeze will sweep you through the hills Where I live in the Alpine heights Below the northern lights I spend my coldest nights alone awake And thinking of the weekend we were in love (The weekend we were in love) Home among these mountain tops can be so awfully dull A thousand miles from the tide Put photos on the walls of New York shopping malls Distract me so I stay inside I wish the rocket stayed over the promenade 'cuz I would make a hook And I fish them from the sky My darling she and I were hanging on so take us high To sing the world goodbye I am floating away lost in a silent ballet I'm dreaming you're out in the blue and I am right beside you Awake to take in the view Late nights and early parades Still photos and noisy arcades My darling we're both on the wing Look down and keep on singing and we can go anywhere Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) Or are you just a decoy dream in my head Am I home or am I simply tumbling out alone I am floating away (Floating away) Lost in a silent ballet (Silent ballet) I'm dreaming you're out in the blue and I am right beside you Awake to take in the view Late nights and early parades (Early parades) Still photos and noisy arcades (Noisy arcades) My darling we're both on the wing look down and keep on singing And we can go anywhere Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) |

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies Lit up the world as I fell asleep Cause they fill the open air And leave teardrops everywhere You'd think me rude but I Would just stand and stare I'd like to make myself believe That planet Earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd Rather stay awake when I'm asleep Cause everything is never as it seems Cause I'd get a thousand hugs From ten thousand lightening bugs As they tried to teach me how to dance A foxtrot above my head A sock hop beneath my bed The disco ball is just hanging by a thread I'd like to make myself believe That planet Earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd Rather stay awake when I'm asleep Cause everything is never as it seems When I fall asleep Leave my door open just a crack Please take me away from here Cause I feel like such an insomniac Please take me away from here Why do I trie of counting sheep Please take me away from here When I'm far too tired to fall asleep To ten million fireflies I'm weird cause I hate goodbyes I got misty eyes as they said farewell But I'll know where several are If my dreams get real bizarre Cause I saved a few And I keep them in a jar I'd like to make myself believe That planet Earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd Rather stay awake when I'm asleep Cause everything is never as it seems When I fall asleep I'd like to make myself believe That planet Earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd Rather stay awake when I'm asleep Cause everything is never as it seems I'd like to make myself believe That planet Earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd Rather stay awake when I'm asleep Because my dreams are bursting at the seams |

Welcome back, Winter once again,
And put on your warm fuzzy sweater, Cuz you'll feel much better when The snowflakes fall, gently to the ground, The temperature drops, and your shivers freeze all the rivers around, But I keep you warm If speed's a pro, Inertia must be a con, Cuz the cold wind blows at precise rates, When I've got my ice skates on If all the roads, Were paved with ice that wouldn't thaw or crack, I could skate from Maine to Nebraska, Then on to Alaska and back, Cuz you keep me warm Peer over the edge, Can you see me?, Rivulets flow from your eyes, Paint runs from your mouth, Like a waterfall, And your lungs crystalize I'll travel the sub-zero tundra, I'll brave glaciers and frozen lakes, And that's just the tip of the iceberg, I'll do whatever it takes, To change Farewell powdery paradise, We'd rather skate on the finished ice, Fingers failed us before they froze, Frostbite bit down on all our toes Snow drifts build up and enfold us, As we wait out this winter storm, So we snuggle close in the darkness, And keep each other so warm |

The stars lean down to kiss you
And I lie awake and miss you Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere `Cause I`ll doze off safe and soundly But I`ll miss your arms around me I`d send a postcard to you dear `Cause I wish you were here I`ll watch the night turn light blue But it`s not the same without you Because it takes two to whisper quietly The silence isn`t so bad Till I look at my hands and feel sad `Cause the spaces between my fingers Are right where yours fit perfectly I`ll find repose in new ways Though I haven`t slept in two days `Cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone But drenched in vanilla twilight I`ll sit on the front porch all night Waist-deep in thought because when I think of you I don`t feel so alone I don`t feel so alone I don`t feel so alone As many times as I blink I`ll think of you tonight I`ll think of you tonight When violet eyes get brighter And heavy wings grow lighter I`ll taste the sky and feel alive again And I`ll forget the world that I knew But I swear I won`t forget you Oh, if my voice could reach back through the past I`d whisper in your ear, Oh darling I wish you were here |

I wish I could cross my arms, and cross your mind
Cause I believe you'd unfold your paper heart and wear it on your sleeve All my life I wish I broke mirrors, instead of promises Cause all I see, is a shattered conscience staring right back at me I wish I had covered all my tracks completely cause I'm so afraid Is that the light at the far end of the tunnel or just the train? Lift your arms only heaven knows, where the danger grows And it's safe to say there's a bright light up ahead and help is on the way (Help is on the way, Help is on the way, Help is on the way...) Help is on the way I forget the last time I felt brave, I just recall insecurity Cause it came down like a tidal wave, and sorrow swept over me Depression, please cut to the chase and cut a long story short Oh please be done. How much longer can this drama afford to run? Fate looks sharp, severs all my ties and breaks whatever doesn't bend But sadly then, all my heavy hopes just pull me back down again (Back down again, back down again, back down again...) I forget the last time I felt brave, I just recall insecurity Cause it came down like a tidal wave, and sorrow swept over me Then I was given grace and love, I was blind but now I can see Cause I found a new hope from above, and courage swept over me It hurts just to wake up, whenever you're wearing thin Alone on the outside, so tired of looking in The end is uncertain and I've never been so afraid But I don't need a telescope to see that there's hope And that makes me feel brave |

We load a prelude
to our own fairytale. And bought a parachute at a church rummage sale And with a mean sewing machine and miles of thread We sewed the day above la in navy and red. We round a racetrack to your moms kitchen stairs And fought the shadows back down your dark basement stairs. I lit a match and let it catch to light up the room. And then you yelled as we beheld an old maroon. Hot air balloon I`ll be out of my mind and you`ll be out of ideas pretty soon. So lets spend the afternoon in a cold hot air balloon. Leave your jacket behind. We now can touch the tree tops over town. I can`t wait to kiss the ground wherever we touch back down. la la la la la la la la la la la la We drank the great lakes like cold lemonade. And both got stomach aches sprawled out in the shade. So bored to death you held your breath and I tried not to yawn. You make my frown turn upside down and now my worries are gone. I`ll be out of mind and you`ll be out of ideas pretty soon. So lets spend the afternoon in a cold hot air balloon. Leave your jacket behind we now can touch the tree tops over town. I can`t wait to kiss the ground wherever we touch back down. I`ll be out of mind and you`ll be out of ideas pretty soon. So lets spend the afternoon in a cold hot air balloon. Leave your jacket behind we now can touch the tree tops over town. I can`t wait to kiss the ground wherever we touch back down |

If i was a raindrop
You'd be my thunderstorm Its cold so surround me With rain clouds to keep me warm I feel like im falling So darling don't let me go The thought is appalling but should I slip away Into the stormy see will you remember me Asleep in a warm cacoon We dream of lovely things Were both gonna wake up soon So we hope that tomorrow brings Us our butterfly wings If i was a grain of sand Would you be Miami Beach So dusty with starlight Close your eyes and cuddle close to me I'll try not to wake you We'll make a sound while your dosing off But in the night shift the hide tides sweep me away from you Tell me again my dear will you be waiting here Whenever we leave the ground And take to the sky I'll smilie as im gazing down Cause I've always wonder why we won't need feathers to fly |

Toupee or not toupee
That is the question It refused to stay as it all turned grey; William Shakespeare's receding hair Please excuse the pun, 'It's hair today, gone tomorrow' So be thankful For what precious locks you have Toupee or not toupee That is the question And by the way I just gotta say Thank the Lord I'm not going bald And if I may quip My curls and I Are just like heaven 'Cause rest assured There'll be no parting there But should my head get bare like Friar Tuck (Our chase to swallow) It makes me smile 'Cause I know just what I'd do Yeah if I had more wigs than I knew what to do with I'd open a secondhand store And if you ever went bald You'd recall it 'Cause I'd cleverly call it 'Rugs From Me To You' |

So there we were, back home from somewhere inside my head
Oh, bravely I fought off the monsters beneath her bed Pillars of postwar books supported by frame of mind While she memorized the pages that I tried to not hide behind She took my hand in hers and whispered her love for me The lantern died that night but we didn't need to see Implying that she's the bee's knees and I am the cat's meow It's funny how she recalls what I can't remember now But when her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible She gave me a heart attack just because she looked so adorable We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and vowed that we'd live and we'd learn Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn I got a sunburn So there we were out there, unaware of where we'd been We kicked off our flipflops and swung from the rooftops again It's awkward but I'll confess she's all I can think about And it's funny how I recall what she can't remember now But when her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible She gave me a heart attack just because she looked so adorable We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and vowed that we'd live and we'd learn Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn Oh, afterglow, look out below We left a trail of dust behind As we parted ways, she held my gaze And left an imprint on my mind I tried not to cry as we said goodbye And hung the clouds above my town But I shed a tear when she disappeared Cause now I'm a stranger on the ground When her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible She gave me a heart attack We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and vowed that we'd live and we'd learn But she got a tan, and I got a sunburn She got a tan, and I got a sunburn Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn |

Hello Seattle
I am a mountain near In the hills and highlands I fall asleep in hospital parking lots And awake in your mouth Hello Seattle I am a manta ray Deep beneath The blue waves I'll crawl the sandy bottom of Puget Sound and construct a summer home Hello Seattle I am the crescent moon Shining down on your face I will disguise myself as a sleeping pill And descend into view Hello Seattle I am a cold seahorse Feeling warm in your sand I sing about the tide and the ocean surf Rolling in the evening breeze Hello Seattle I am an albatross On the docks and moor boats I sail above your inlets and interstates Through the rain and open wind Hello Seattle I am an old lighthouse Throwing beams of bright light Red in the morning Blue in the evening sun Taking heat from everyone Hello Seattle I am a mountain near In the hills and highlands I fall asleep in hospital parking lots Take me above your light Carry me through the night Hold me secure in flight Sing me to sleep tonight Take me above your light (Hello Seattle, I am a) Carry me through the night (mountain near in the hills and highlands) Hold me secure in flight (I fall asleep in hospital parking lots) Sing me to sleep tonight (And awake) |

You're the sky that I fell through
And I remember the view whenever I'm holding you The sun hung from a string Looking down on the world as it warmed over everything Chills run down my spine as our fingers intwine And your sighs harmonize with mine Unmistakably I can still feel your heart Beat fast when you dance with me We got older and I should have known (Do you feel alive?) That I'd feel colder when I walk alone (Oh, but you'll survive) So I may as well ditch my dismay (Bombs away... Bombs away...) Circle me and the needle moves gracefully Back and forth, if my heart was a compass you'd be North Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall Wherever you go, if my heart was a house you'd be home It makes me smile because you said it best I would clearly feel blessed if the sun rose up from the west Flower balm perfume, all my clothes smell like you Cause your favorite shade is navy blue I walk slowly when I'm on my own (Do you feel alive?) Yeah, but frankly I still feel alone (Oh, but you'll survive) So I may as well ditch my dismay (Bombs away... Bombs away...) Circle me and the needle moves gracefully Back and forth, if my heart was a compass you'd be North Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall Wherever you go, if my heart was a house you'd be home If my heart was a house, you'd be home |

This is a world of dreams and revery
Where I felt the stars explode around me A grass blade flashed with a gleam as it slashed open a moonbeam And I stared back breathlessly As mountains of fruit tumbled out I barely had the chance to shout A strawberry avalanche crash over me Staying awake that night was rather hard Deep in a sleeping bag in your back yard When we woke up buried alive Beneath the fruity landslide We both laughed hysterically It could've been just another dream But, I swear I heard you scream A strawberry avalanche crash over me Oh, there's a citrus constellation in the galaxy Scratched on the back of both my eyelids That I've been dying to see If you were a beautiful sound in the echoes all around Then I'd be your harmony And we'd sing along with the crowds Beneath the candy coated clouds A strawberry avalanche please crash over me This is a world of dreams and revery Where I felt the stars explode around me |
