I think I'd be cooler if I hung out with them, Maybe then I could hide the background I'm from. x2 I wanna know what it's like to be alive, I'm tired of looking in from the outside, I wanna be the roots diggin' in the earth, I wanna be the change bouncin' in your purse, There is a thing I know that lives in outer space, It is invisible but somehow I relate, I've got a lot to give and even more to say, But there's nobody here to listen to me. I want to be all the things, I want to be all the things, I want to be all the things all the things to make your heart sing, I wanna know what it's like to be alive, I'm tired of lookin' in from the outside, I wanna be the roots diggin' in the earth, I wanna be the change bouncin' in your purse. I wanna know what it's like to be in touch, I've had the chance before but it was just too much, To be in touch with someone who's just not enough, Enough like all the things I wanna because I want to be all the things x3 All the things to make your heart sing, All the things. I think I'd be cooler if I hung out with them, Maybe then I could hide the background I'm from, Then again they're more like a time and a place, I think I'd rather just be all of the things. Ahhhhhhhh.

I Dunno 04:16
I would like to be a fool, Head first into you, Shallow is that pool, But i bet it feels cool. Misery loves it's company, So baby won't you cum for me, Been thinkin' aboutchu and I'd love to be, The guy to keep you company, And I know you've gotchur hang ups darlin', but I just can't help myself from fallin', So shoot me straight and please be true, Cause I dunno if I can hide my love for you, I dunno if I can hide my love from you. (Well) Certainly it's not just me, who's thinking possibilities, (You) Been dreaming about you and it seems to bleed, Into when you're in front of me (Well) I know you got your hang ups darlin, But I just can't help myself from fallin But I just can't help myself from fallin, Well I dunno if I can hide my love from you, I dunno if I can hide my love from you.

My swingin' Tchoupatoulas, how could you've been gone so soon? I'd barely shook the Zula, you're sinking like old baloons, Well my heart's a strong one, I won't leave, Send my lungs underwater, I'm gonna breath, I know it's lookin' like to be the end of the line, I'd like to think that we could be the proper design. Oh my sand in a potion bottle, settle down for me, so I can fill up with ocean water, set out to sea. oh I'm losin' solid ground, I'm losin' solid ground, I remember when you told me, you'd rather be lost than dead, well my heart's a strong one, I won't leave, send my lungs under water, I'll breath, I know it's lookin' like to be the end of the line, I'd like to think that we could be the proper design, Oh my sand in a potion bottle, settle down for me, (New Orlantis) so I can fill up with ocean water, set out to sea. (New Orlantis)

Shackled ankles got me feelin, Hollow, Do you see things the way that I see them, Hollow, Pickled prose and shadows weeping, Hollow, Must be something outside this darkness less, Hollow, Like a diamond in the rough you shine, x4 Can't I marvel at the unattainable, Hollow, Or is this light within the deep not so, Hollow, Hollow, Like a diamond in the rough you shine, x12

Something 03:10
Something has happened to me, Something is changing, As I approach you, I notice as I do, This feeling of being so new. Something to think of all day, Someone amazing, I have a hard time, Having waited till I'm numb, Believing love's finally come. This feeling of being so new, x4 Something has happened to me, Something has changed, I have a feeling, Ad a feeling you do too, This feeling of being so new. With you, With you, With you, with you.
