Dear Vienna-Owl City

Lyrics:
I regarded the world as such a sad sight
Until I viewed it in black and white
Then I reviewed every frame and basic shape
And sealed the exits with caution tape
Dont refocus your eyes in the darkness
And dont remember this place unless
I describe all the things that you cannot see
And well unravel the mystery

Farewell, all my friends in textbooks, Im going home
Cuz my blood cells cannot depend on the weather in photographs
Theres a light show out my window somewhere way up there

Dear Vienna, are you singing?
Dear Vienna, are you swinging?
Dear Vienna, we were happy like the shades of May when we got carried away

I regarded the world as such a sad sight
Until I viewed it in black and white
Then I reviewed every frame and basic shape
And sealed the exits with caution tape
Dont refocus your eyes in the darkness
And dont remember this place unless
I describe all the things that you cannot see
And well unravel the mystery

I was so far out of place
Watching those stars in outer space
Cuz I am so far from where you are

Theres a light show out my window somewhere way up there

Dear Vienna, are you singing?
Dear Vienna, are you swinging?
Dear Vienna, we were happy like the shades of May when we got carried away

I used to dislike this song. It took me awhile to learn to appreciate it. And now I can safely say it is my very favoritest song. There are s o many deep lines amongst the lyrics, but my very favorite part is "I was so far out of place/watching those stars in outerspace/cuz i'm so far from where you are" ♥

@lenore: I knooooow! It's a "don't touch the positive with the negative ends" kinda thing.
