You and I in a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone

Back at base bugs in the software
Flash the message, something's out there
Floating in the summer sky

The bird is here and we are off to wherever those wings take us.
The atmosphere is crawling with airlines
that wind through the clouds and look down on the crowds.

Relax your back and let the noise sing you to sleep in my arms.
If you awake before we arrive I will carry you down and I won't make a sound.

The scent is strong as we move on and breathe in the pristine crime scene.

[Chorus]
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky
Even though, I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go

[Shawn Chrystopher - Rap Verse 1]
Uh uh, that's not a plane, that's me

Wake me if you're out there!

Through the glass in my bedroom window
In the bushes far below,
I thought I saw an unfamiliar shadow
Among the ones I so clearly know

I've been sleeping with the nightlight unplugged

A spot soaring down through the pouring rain
And restoring life to the lighthouse
A slow motion wave on the ocean stirs
My emotion up like a raincloud

When did the sky turned black?
And when will the light come back?!

A spark soaring down through the pouring rain
And restoring life to the lighthouse,
A slow motion wave on the ocean,
Stirs my emotion up like, like a rain cloud.

When did the sky turn black?
And when will the light come back?

So I walk alone down the darkest roads
'Cause I've always known how the story goes
When the curtain falls I'll be wearing thin
Clawing at the walls as they're closing in
In this twisted plot I was destined for
I'm an astronaut on the ocean floor
So misunderstood 'till the bloody end
How I wish I could do it all again

That blonde, she's a bomb, she's an atom bomb
Rigged up and ready to drop
The bad news, I'm a fuse and I've met my match, so stand back it's about to
go off

That vixen, she's a master of disguise, I see danger when I look in her
eyes
She's so foxy, she could lead to my advice, so I'm running 'cause I've run

All the thoughts in my head spinning 'round like a hurricane
And life leaves me so confused
When I trip and I fall I collapse like a tidal wave
So I'm crying out to you
You reached down out of nowhere
And picked my heart up off the floor
You put my life back together
And I'm not broken anymore

I am stuck in L.A through the week, and can’t get away
And you’re alone on the pier in West Palm Beach on your holiday
Stormy nights re-awake the stomachache that I’ve acquired
From feeling down, things look grim and I’m so sick, of being tired

Apartment lights go dark, and it’s depressing but what can I do?
Midnight streets feel dead, when I am so used to driving with you

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

Met a girl in the parking lot,
And all I did was say hello.
Her pepper spray made it rather hard
For me to walk her home,
But I guess that's the way it goes.

Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye.

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 fight
And rather than flaunt my style

Affection, the gifted architect
Is making a draft and beautiful design
The options and possibilities
Are endless when we connect and re-align
Collections of books and documents
Arise and parade around my cluttered desk
Reworking the math and measurements
Until I'm convinced these plans are picturesque

We were alone on the road driving faster
So far from home we were chasing disaster
Hard on the gas 'till the car caught on fire
We had to laugh as the smoked billowed higher
I wanna feel alive forever after
And you say, you say you wanna feel alive forever after
And I, and I, and I say

Splash down in the silver screen,
Into a deep dramatic scene,
I swim through the theatre,
Or maybe I'm just a dreamer!
Like a kite in the bright midday,
Wonder stole my breath away,
Shy sonata for Mercury,
The stars always sing so pretty.

Good evening, shuttle bus! Tell me where you're going to take us
Someplace that I have never been
It's chic transportation to new destination where I leave my reflection on the glass
I'd ask but we don't know how far these interstates go
Or how deep the city roots go down
In chilly sub-depth railways, the weathered concrete stairways provide me with a means of getting home... if I ever leave

On crystal sand, we sleep hand-in-hand

There were days when each hour was a war I fought to survive
There were nights full of nightmares and I dreaded closing my eyes
There were skies that burst open with a downpour to drown me alive
But the world took a spark like a match in the dark and the fire brought me
to life
So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high 'cause there's no other way we
can stay alive

There I was again tonight forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place
Walls of insincerity
Shifting eyes and vacancy vanished when I saw your face
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you

Your eyes whispered "have we met?"
Across the room your silhouette starts to make it's way to me

[Verse 1]
When my hope is lost and my strength is gone
I run to you, and you alone
When I can’t get up, and I can’t go on
I run to you, and you alone

[Pre-Chorus]
Cause you’re my light in the dark

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies LIT up the world as i fell asleep
'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare

[Chorus х2:]
I'd like to make myself believe

Fireflies

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep

‘Cause they’d fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies lit up the world as i fell asleep
'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare

[Chorus х2:]
I'd like to make myself believe

If I could look across the country
From California to New Jersey
Then I would count the parks and lake resorts
And number all the jets and airports
All those rather dreary rain clouds still bother me
Cuz I look through the camera eyepiece and cannot see

If I could open up my window

Call back the cap-com,
Tick off the time-bomb,
Let felicity fly!
Armour the airlock,
Blanket the bedrock,
And kiss the planet goodbye!

Dear God I was terribly lost

Standing open take a bow
There is something there and it’s showing
There is no need to look around you are the best we got going
Shout out to the dreams you chase
Shout out to the heart you break
Nothing is gonna stop you know
I guess you better be going
Before keep it in here inside my heart you hear

Hello Seattle, I am a mountaineer
In the hills and highlands
I fall asleep in hospital parking lots
And awake in your mouth

Hello Seattle, I am a mantaray
Deep beneath the blue waves
I'll crawl the sandy bottom of Puget Sound

Everywhere everybody needs a neighbor
showing up when times get hard
But there's friends of sons and daughters
saying grace without supper in your backyard
Who doesn't wanna be a hero?
At least a little bit of helping out
There's some things you're never gonna help or change
but hunger's somethin' we can turn around

Everywhere everybody needs a neighbor
showing up when times get hard
But there's friends of sons and daughters
saying grace without supper in your backyard
Who doesn't wanna be a hero?
At least a little bit of helping out
There's some things you're never gonna help or change
but hunger's somethin' we can turn around

Don't remind me
That some days I'm a windshield
And other days I'm just a lucky bug
As cold iron rails leave
Old mossy trails through the countryside

The crow and the bean field
Are my best friends but

I survived a dreadful accident,
In the car crash of the century,
My shattered hopes collapsed on cold cement,
But in the back of the ambulance, I'd never felt so content.
A high-speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me,
And now my vision can render the scene,
A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris,
Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency.

We wrote a prelude
To our own fairy tale
And bought a parachute
At a church rummage sale

And with a mean sewing machine
And miles of thread
We sewed the day above L.A.

How deep the Father’s love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory

June was the lobster shell,
I dug by hand, a haven that hid me well,
Beneath the sand,
The white windy waves washed in,
But I stayed dry,
The great breakers broke again,
'Cause I'm on and off inside.
And then, when the empress run aground,

She wound the thread around the pieces of, my broken heart
Had left me to believe
That girls don't wanna, girls don't wanna leave

The starry nights without a fear of heights
I can't recall, but I learned after all
That girls don't wanna, girls don't wanna fall

Are you out there
Where the rainy days begin
To feel rather sad
And the walls are closing in
Like the darkness around me
It's so hard to look away
When the daylight doesn't ever stay
Above this dull apartment view

If we could sit together a moment
And talk forever just to pass the time
I would smile as the shivers and chills
Run down my spine
When your eyes are locked on mine

Oh, we will fill the metro skies with country air
And when you close your tired eyes I'll meet you there

I saw your face in a criminal sketch
Don't be alarmed 'cause you don't know me yet
I'm on the prowl now, sniffing around this town for you
Calling all cars, there's an officer down
Shot to the heart on the night on the town, and
The evidence of your fingerprints was found, and now

You got the right to remain right here with me

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 warms over everything
Chills run down my spine
As our fingers entwine
And your sighs harmonize with mine

In Christ alone my hope is found;
He is my light, my strength, my song;
This cornerstone, this solid ground,
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My comforter, my all in all—
Here in the love of Christ I stand.

Wake me if you're out there!

Through the glass in my bedroom window
In the bushes far below,
I thought I saw an unfamiliar shadow
Among the ones I so clearly know

I've been sleeping with the nightlight unplugged

Ladies and gentleman,
Today is a day for mourning and remembering
They had a hunger to explore the universe
And discover its truths and
They had that special grace
That special spirit that says give me a challenge
And I'll meet it with joy

The princess in her flower bed
Pulled the jungle underground
Where cherry bombs stained the blackbirds red
And explosions never make a sound

Oh comet, come down
Kamikaze over me
And I come alive

Well it's Christmas time
And I'm warm inside
Despite the bitter cold
'Cause you're here with me
And I guarantee
My heart is yours to hold
So we smile below
This mistletoe

Well it's Christmas time, and i'm warm inside
Despite the bitter cold
Cause you're here with me, and I guarantee, my heart is yours to hold
So we smile below, this mistletoe, as if we need a hint
And the falling snow, well I bet it knows, how love can pull you in

Oh oh oh (da da da da da)
Little lights flash in your eyes (da da da da da)

Symphony of silver tears,
Sing to me and sooth the ring in my ears,
Overcast these gloomy nights wear on,
But I'm holding fast because it's darkest just before the dawn.

I sang my princess fast asleep,
'Cause she was my dream come true,
Oh Annmarie, believe me, I loved you.

I can finally see
That you're right there beside me

I am not my own
For I have been made new
Please don't let me go
I desperately need you

Where do I begin?
Should I tell you
How bad I need you now
You're underneath my skin
But I'm confused
My head is spinning all around
I waited so long
I need to know, darling

Oh oh, I can't even take it in.
Oh oh, I can't even take it in.
Oh oh, I left my heart in Metropolis.

So far apart, I check that the coast was clear,
I feel like a post card, I wish you were here.
Subway through the dark, tearing through the park.
Taxi down the street, the avenue's at my feet

When my hope is lost
And my strength is gone
I run to you and you alone
When I can't get up and I can't go on
I run to you and you alone

'Cause you're my light in the dark
And I sing with all of my heart

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

I'm moving to Tokyo
Cuz I'm tired of San Francisco
My contracts are finally void
And I am getting out
On houses and building tops
I swallow the beams and sundrops
If my echos could reach your ears
Then I could save my calls

There’s the snow
Look out below
And bundle up
Cause here it comes
Run outside
So starry eyed
A snowball fight breaks out
And winter has finally begun

I saw a ghost on the stairs
Sheets on the tables and chairs
Silverware swam with the sharks in the sink
Even so I don't know what to think

I've been hoping for
Daisies to push through the floor
I want life to grow all around me

High rise, beams of the avenue
Bright eyes and subtle variations of blue
Everywhere is balanced there like a rainbow above you
Street lights glisten on the boulevard
And cold nights make staying alert so hard
For heaven's sake, keep me awake so I won't be caught off guard
Clearly I am a passerby but I'll find a place to stay
Dear pacific, dear won't you take me away?

To pay or not to pay, that is the question
It refused to stay as it all turned grey, old William
Shakespeare's receding hair
Please excuse the pun, it's "hair" today, gone tomorrow,
so be thankful for what precious locks you have

To pay or not to pay, that is the question
And by the way, I just gotta say thank the Lord I'm not

Just before the dawn,
When the light's still gone,
Shine, shine your way,
And you may not know, where to go,
Shine, shine your way

Open road but it's still dark,
Build a fire from a spark,

Close your tired eyes
Relax and then
Count from one to ten
And open them
All the heavy thoughts will try to weigh you down
But not this time
Way up in the air
You're finally free

Light up the sky, shy violet angel eyes
Light up the sky, shy violet angel eyes

She dried my eyes and drifted off
While every tear was held aloft
The heavy rain clouds felt terrible
'Cause she made my stormy sky beautiful

I'm tired of waking up in tears
Cos I can't put to bed these phobias and fears.
I'm new to this grief I can't explain
But I'm no stranger to the heartache and the pain.
The fire I began is burning me alive
but I know better than to leave and let it die
I'm a silhouette asking every now and then
is it over yet, will I ever feel again?

I tried to disappear
But you're the only reason I'm floating here
Eyes painted crystal clear
I can see our future through the atmosphere

Don't you go, no, don't you go
Don't you know I'm up here alone
Yeah, I am like a satellite

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 crashed over me.

So there we were, back home
From somewhere inside my head
Well bravely I fought off the monsters beneath her bed
Pillars of post-war books supported my 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 bees knees and I am the cats meow

Glamour and fashion
Models and magazines... a striking runway entrance
Beauty and passion
Stardust and high class scenes of popular teens
When I lived in Denver, I met a millionaire
With ribbons in her blonde hair
I still remember
She was like a princess straight from a dreamy castle in the air

I'm alone above the atmosphere
And no one looking up can find me here
Cause I can close my eyes, and disappear
When I climb the stairs to watch the sun
Above station walls, the colors run
To fill the swimming pool when I am done

I am the captain of an oil tanker that travels throuh your veins

There was a shot in the dark, I was caught by surprise
There was a whole in my heart, there where tears in your eyes
and there was nothing to say, cause you made up your mind
So I guess what you meant when you left was goodbye
So if you are gonna go and leave me in a lonely grave
I wont let it show, until you have finally flown away
You gotta know that you tear me up when you say,
You wanna take it all away, take it all away

Shipwreck in the sea of faces,
There's a dreamy world up there,
Dear friends in higher places,
Carry me away from here

Travel light let the sun eclipse you,
'Cause your flight is about to leave,
And there's more to this brave adventure,

When I am fast asleep
I dream and see you floating high above me
And I awake at dawn
Before the rays of morning paint the front lawn
From on the bedroom floor
I watch you sailing far above the seashore
In deep Atlantic skies
You float as I look aft to watch the moon rise

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)
So I'd get caught and off of your shoulder
And feel the shine (feel the shine), I'm hooked so toss me over

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 seperated
I'll scream

"The Christmas Song"

It's Christmas and we walk alone
Two strangers with no one to miss us
On our own, out in the cold

Trudging onward, braving a harsh winter storm
You and I met passing by, and now our spirits feel warm

I saw the autumn leaves peel up off the street, take wing on the balmy breeze and sweep you off your feet.

You blushed as they scooped you up on sugar maple wings, to gaze down on the city below, ablaze with wondrous things.

Downy feathers kiss your face and flutter everywhere. Reality is a lovely place but I wouldn’t want to live there.

i wouldn't wanna live there!

I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light
Walking down by the bay, on the shore,
staring up at the planes that aren’t there anymore
I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold
Like an introvert,
I drew my over shirt around my arms and began to shiver violently
Before you happened to look and see the tunnels all around me
Running into the dark underground

I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light
Walking down by the bay, on the shore, staring up at the planes that aren’t there anymore
I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold
Like an introvert, I drew my over shirt
Around my arms and began to shiver violently before
You happened to look and see the tunnels all around me
Running into the dark underground
All the subways around create a great sound

I am the red in the rose, the flowers
On the blankets on your bedroom floor.
And I am the gray in the ghost that hides
With your clothes behind your closet door.
I am the green in the grass that bends back
From underneath your feet.
And I am the blue in your back alley view
Where the horizon and the rooftops meet.

Welcome back winter once again
And put on your warm fuzzy sweater
'Cause 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

Adam: My raw candy passion is bitter-sweet,
Onto the teeth,
'Cause she would rather fall in chocolate,
Than fall in love, especially with me.
I stood under the waterfall,
With a kiwi pineapple parasol,
As Cinderella dropped the crystal ball,
And made a concrete cavern of caterpillar concert hall.

Wake up on your own
And look around you cuz you’re not alone
Release your high hopes and they’ll survive
Cuz this is the future and you are alive

Dive in and swim away
From your loneliness and miserable days

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

Shipwreck in the sea of faces,
There's a dreamy world up there,
Dear friends in higher places,
Carry me away from here

Travel light let the sun eclipse you,
'Cause your flight is about to leave,
And there's more to this brave adventure,

Shipwreck in the sea of faces
There's a dreamy world up there
Dear friends in higher places
Carry me away from hear
Travel light let the Sun eclipse you
'Cause your flight is about to leave
And there's more to this brave adventure
Than you'd Ever Believe

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, a sea on the side
Where I disappear and hide

It's unbelievable
This is as good as it gets
It's unbelievable
Don't know what's gonna happen next
It's unbelievable
You haven't seen nothing yet
It's unbelievable, it's unbelievable

I fell in love with a ghost
Oh under the moonlight
You took my hand and held me close
For once I was alright

I cried and the tears fell from my eyes
Like a waterfall
And I swear I can feel you in my arms

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

Are you out there? Where the rainy days begin
To feel rather sad and the walls are closing in like the darkness around me
It's so hard to look away when the daylight doesn't ever stay
Above this dull apartment view, oh I will surround you
It's quite clear that I'm stuck here
So I'll devise a plan and cut out a door in my new living room floor
The porch light is so bright
That I will quickly sneak down the dark metal shape of the rusty fire escape

When can we do this again?
When can I see you again?
When can we do this again?
When can I see you again?
When can we do this again?
When can I see you again?

Switch on the sky and the stars glow for you

When can we do this again?
When can I see you again?
When can we do this again?
When can I see you again?
When can we do this again?
When can I see you again?

Switch on the sky and the stars glow for you

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies lit up the world as i fell asleep
'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare

[Chorus х2:]
I'd like to make myself believe

We wrote a prelude
To our own fairy tale
And bought a parachute
At a church rummage sale

And with a mean sewing machine
And miles of thread
We sewed the day above L.A.
