[Jupiter] When I'm staring at the ground I feel so tall When I memorize all the words I start to think I know it all but when I look into the sky I feel so small I feel so small I feel so small There you can see Orion and there's the North Star There are names for all the others I forget what they are and there are way more that you can't see cause they're just too far just too far and I feel so small [Instumental featuring sounds from Miranda, Neptune, The rings of Saturn, The rings of Uranus, Uranus and Star KIC7671081B] I am on the red eye watching traffic crawl we rise above the clouds high above it all and someone on the ground mistakes us for a shooting star that's how small we are how small we are Now the sun is burning down and the flames fly tall the stars are becoming like leaves in the fall and when we see the moon is bleeding we feel so small we feel so small we feel so small [Saturn}

The branch and the vine they must fight to be wine they must fight to survive the dirt all around looks like dirt that you found on some dry desert ground You teach me my lessons and you're keeping me guessing til you got me confessing I crack break and pour my whole self on the floor til I'm no one no one but yours the green growing vine and the dead poisoned vine they are tight intertwined you could cut you could tear to the point of despair you wont get anywhere the live and the dead are so closely bound they are so hopelessly wound and I crack break and pour my whole self on the floor and I'm no one's No one's but yours I am like a bird that sees himself inside a window and he flies into that window and the window does not move (X2) All my mirrors I will break them, I will break them all for you cause until I break them all I see is me I can't see you (X2

The planning is all over the church has emptied out there's still some birdseed left on the sidewalk where we ran out we've celebrated our love and said all we have to say and we are finally together to stay I'm done dropping you off and saying "good night" then returning to my lonely place and turning off the lights those days are over now we're both in the same place now we're finally together to stay I'm all done I don't have to search anymore I've finally found the one that I've been praying for you're the one the one that I've been praying for when the color of our hair is overcast from running under summer rain and ravines and ditches have been carved out by joy and pain when the bottle of our years has become fine, fine wine I will toast to me becoming yours and you becoming mine I'm all done I don't have to search anymore I've finally found the one that I've been praying for you're the one the one that I've been praying for

It was a long, long winter It lasted so, so long It was a long, long winter but for now, it is gone (repeat) So we don't care if it's raining outside We're gonna ride our bikes We don't care about the thunder and lightning We're gonna ride our bikes Ride our bikes Ride our bikes Ride our bikes We're not gonna keep buying gas We're gonna ride our bikes Traffic is backed up but we can pass We're gonna ride our bikes Ride our bikes Ride our bikes Ride our bikes It was a long long winter It lasted soooo long It was a long long winter But for now, it is gone (repeat) We don't care about all the potholes We're gonna ride our bikes We're not gonna spend another minute indoors We're gonna ride our bikes Ride our bikes Ride our bikes Ride our bikes I say we get up before the sun Put our shorts and our t shirts on Take a ride out to the river Make breakfast on a portable fryer I wanna watch the sun fall from the dawn And all the rays fall through those clouds That's what I wanna do On our bike ride Then tonight we'll bike out to the park Play ultimate frisbee til it's dark Watch the fireflies put on a show Then we're back on our bikes and off we go Only twenty-five minutes to downtown See if there's anything going on oooooo Doesn't that sound fun? And we don't care if the cars get angry We're gonna ride our bikes They need to chill out and read the road laws We get to ride our bikes Ride our bikes Ride our bikes Ride our bikes

Slow Lane 03:01
I used to really want to be a big star on TV well that did not work out obviously I've made up my mind I'm not even going to try if I'm not racing then you can't say you beat me I'd just as soon stay in the slow lane 50 in a 65 gonna stay in the slow lane it's enough to survive gonna stay in the slow lane, slow lane and enjoy my time these days by 3 I'm feeling so much lethargy I just want to sit at home and watch tv I see no silver lining in winning second place so I withdraw my name in order to save face I'd just as soon stay in the slow lane 50 in a 65 gonna stay in the slow lane it's enough to survive gonna stay in the slow lane, slow lane and enjoy my time Angels shall catch you you won't strike your foot against a stone, no Angels shall catch you you won't strike your foot against a stone I don't care to state my views there are too many sides unproven manuscripts and blind, blind guides I have no opion my own personal decree is that everyone in the world must agree that no one knows for sure just like me, just like me, just like me, just like me in the slow lane 50 in a 65 gonna stay in the slow lane it's enough to survive gonna stay in the slow lane, slow lane and enjoy my time
