lyrics

Today I find myself in silence
In the middle of a barren town
In the middle of an empty car park
Next to a house that's just burned down

In a state of perpetual stillness
While ashen boards bend beneath my feet
I found the motorcycle helmet
Of a man who used to rule these streets

And when he wore it
It shined red in the sun
Yeah when he put it on
Was not afraid of anyone

Today I found a girl in math class
In the middle of a shitty day
Things were awkward and awesome
I wouldn't have it any other way

We watch My Little Pony
We make bad jokes and nap
We make baked goods and music
We take another nap and then we go to class

And when she chills with me
There's no place I'd rather be
Yeah when she's by my side
I'm not afraid of anything

And now I sit a little while in my cluttered room
Thinking "Man, I hope someday I get to go to the moon"
Thinking "Life's a little hard, but it'll be just fine"
Don't need to run away because I just learned how to fly

I really want telekinesis
I really wanna smell the stars
I want a big damn talk show
I want a solid platinum car

But for the sake of gratuity
I'll write my name on a satellite
But as far as my hopes and dreams go,
I just wanna sing tonight
