Owl city "To The Sky"

Owl City - To The Sky (Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole )

Shipwreck in a 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
Than you’d ever believe


Birds-eye view, awake the stars ‘cause they’re all around you
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue
Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery
‘Cause after all those wings will take you, up so high
So bid the forest floor goodbye as you race the wind
And take to the sky (you take to the sky)


On the heels of war and wonder
There’s a stormy world up there
You can’t whisper above the thunder
But you can fly anywhere


Purple burst of paper birds
This picture paints a thousand words
So take a breath of myth and mystery
And don’t look back


Birds-eye view, awake the stars ‘cause they’re all around you
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue
Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery
‘Cause after all those wings will take you, up so high
So bid the forest floor goodbye as you race the wind
And take to the sky (you take to the sky)


There’s a realm above the trees
Where the lost are finally found
Touch your feathers to the breeze
And leave the ground


Birds-eye view, awake the stars ‘cause they’re all around you
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue
Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery
‘Cause after all those wings will take you, up so high
So bid the forest floor goodbye as you race the wind
And take to the sky (you take to the sky) x2

Owl city "The Tip Of The Iceberg"

Title:"The Tip Of The Iceberg"

Song By Owl City!

Album:"Ocean Eyes"

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

Owl City "Tidal Wave"

Title:"Tidal Waves"

Album:"Ocean Eyes"

Artist/Band:"Owl city

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

Owl City-"Umbrella Breach"

Title:"Umbrella Breach!!"
Song By Owl City!
Album:"Ocean Eyes"

Sands 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
And 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 on sea outta sight
Where I disappear and hide
And 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!

Owl City - Vanilla Twilight

Title:"Vanilla Twilight"
Song By Owl City!
Album:"Ocean Eyes"

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 myfingers
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!!!

Owl City-"Fireflies"

Title:"Fireflies"

Song By Owl City!

Album:"Ocean Eyes"

"

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


b'Cause they'd 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 lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance


A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A 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 tire 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
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
Because my dreams are bursting at the seems !!!!!!!!

Owl City-"Peppermint Winter"

Title:"Peppermint Winter"
Promotional Song By Owl City!

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 twirl through the driveway with angelic grace
Till I slip on the sidewalk and fall on my face
This peppermint winter is so sugar sweet
I don’t need to taste to believe
What’s December without Christmas Eve


Hop in the sleigh
And we’ll glide away
Into the night
And we’ll sip on moonlight
Runny nose
My frosty toes
Are getting cold but I feel alive
So I smile wide


The snowflakes start falling and I start to float
Till my mean older brother stuffs snow down my coat
This peppermint winter is so sugar sweet
I don’t need to taste to believe
What’s December without Christmas Eve


All this holiday cheer
Heaven knows where it goes
But it returns every year
And though this winter does nothing but storm
The joy in my heart is ablaze and it’s keeping me warm
It’s keeping me warm
It’s keeping me warm


I rip off the wrapping and tear through the box
Till I end up with 45 new pairs of socks
This peppermint winter is so sugar sweet
I don’t need to taste to believe
What’s December without Christmas Eve!!!!

Owl City-"Enchanted "

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
The playful conversation starts
counter all your quick remarks like passing notes in secrecy
All i can say is it was enchanting to meet you
Oh taylor i was so enchanted to meet you too


This night is sparkling, don’t you let it go
I’m wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you too!


The lingering question kept me up
2am, who do you love?
I wondered till i’m wide awake
Now i’m pacing back and forth, wishing you were at my door
I’d open up and you would say,
Hey it was enchanting to meet you
Oh taylor i was so enchanted to meet you too


This night is sparkling, don’t you let it go
I’m wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I’ll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you too


This is me praying that this was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name until i see you again
These are the words i held back as i was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you too
Please don’t be in love with someone else
Please don’t have somebody waiting on you
Please don’t be in love with someone else
Please don’t have somebody waiting on you


This night is sparkling, don’t you let it go
I’m wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I’ll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don’t you let it go
I’m wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
Taylor i’ll spend my whole life wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you too


I was never in love with someone else
I never had somebody waiting on me
’Cause you were all of my dreams come true
And i just wish you knew
Taylor i was so in love with you.

Owl City-"Galaxies"

Title:"Galaxies"

Album:"All Things Bright and Beautiful"

Artist:Owl City!

Writers:Adam Young!! 

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,
When the galaxies crossed,
And the sun went dark.
Dear god, you’re the only north star,
I would follow this far.
Fight back the flight deck,
Bring on the breakneck,
Cue the solar eclipse!
Summit the sunset,
Dubtail the dragnet,
And blow your backbone to bits!


Dear god, i was terribly lost,
When the galaxies crossed,
And the sun went dark.
Dear god, you’re the only north star,
I would follow this far.


Oh telescope, keep an eye on my only hope,
Least i blink and be swept off the narrow road.
Hercules, you’ve got nothing to say to me,
’Cause you’re not the blinding light that i need.


For he is the saving grace of the galaxies!
He is the saving grace of the galaxies!!

Owl City-" Alligator Sky"

Title:"Alligator Sky"
Album:"All Things Bright and Beautiful"
Artist:Owl City!
Writers:Adam Young!! 

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 letting go, I’m never letting go!


Remember to breathe, because it’ll take your breath away,
When the engines cough, and you blast off.
Ignite the night with a firecracker flash.
Remember to live, ’cause you’re gonna be thrilled to death,
When the stars collide and your eyes grow wide.
Take it in with your breath against the glass.
Remember to dream because it’s gonna be a starry night,
Over every town, if you look down.
So harmonize with the singing satellites.
Remember to scream because you’re gonna be lost for words,
When the sparks erupt and they light you up.
Dip your toes in the galaxy ’cause it’s yours to explore tonight.


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 letting go, I’m never letting go!
Rollercoaster through the atmosphere,
I’m drowning in this starry serenade,
We’re ecstasy because cavalier,
My imagination’s taking me away.
Reverie whisper in my ear,
I’m scared to death that I’ll never be afraid,


Rollercoaster through the atmosphere,
My imagination’s taking me away.
Let’s hear it for the Universe,
Where it never hurts,
Diving in head-first.
Take a taste of the melting Milky Way.
And remember to laugh ’cause you’re living in a crazy world,
Where you’ll never guess what could happen next.
Give the outer limits my regards as you float to fly away.
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 letting go, I’m never letting go!
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 letting go, I’m never letting go!
The Alligator Sky,
The Alligator Sky,
The Alligator Sky.

Owl City-"Deer in the Headlights"

Title:"Deer in the Headlights"
Album:"All Things Bright and Beautiful"
Artist:Owl City!
Writers:Adam Young!!

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
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright
Well smile because you’re the deer in the headlights


Met a girl with a graceful charm
But when beauty met the beast he froze
Got the sense I was not her type
By the black eye and bloody nose
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
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright
Well smile because you’re the deer in the headlights


It’s suffocating to say
But the female mystique takes my breath away
So give me a smile or give me a sneer
Cause I’m trying to guess here


Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright
I’m sorry I ever tried (Deer in the headlights)


Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright
if life was a game, you would never play nice
if love was a beam, you’d be blind in both eyes

Put your sunglasses on
Cause you’re the deer in the headlights
You’re the deer in the headlights!
You’re the deer in the headlights!!!\
