Owl City

Owl City - Rainbow Veins lyrics

rate me

High-rise, veins of the avenue.

Bright eyes in subtle variations of blue.

Everywhere is balanced there

like a rainbow above you.

Street lights glisten on the boulevard

and cold nights make staying alert so hard...

For heaven's sake, keep me awake

so I won't be caught off

guard.

Clearly, I

am a passerby

but I'll find a place to stay.

Dear pacific day, won't you take me away?

Small town, hearts of the New Year

brought down by gravity, crystal clear.

City fog and brave dialogue

converge on the frontier.

Make haste, I feel your heartbeat

with new taste for speed,

out on the street.

Find a road to a humble abode

where both of our routes meet.

The silver sound is all around

and the colours fall like snow.

The feeling of letting go,

I guess we'll never know.

Cheer up and dry your damp eyes,

and tell me when it rains

and I'll blend up that rainbow above you

and shoot it through your veins

'cause your heart has a lack of colour,

and we should've known

that we'd grow up sooner or later

'cause we wasted all our free time alone.

Your nerves gather with the altitude.

Exhale the stress so you don't come unglued.

Somewhere there

is a happy affair,

a ghost of a good mood.

Wide-eyed, panic on the getaway.

The high tide could take me so far away.

VCR's and motorcars

unite on the Seventh Day.

A popular gauge

will measure the rage

of the new Post-Modern Age

'cause somewhere along the line, all the decades align.

We were the crashing whitecaps

on the ocean.

What a lovely seaside holiday away...

a palm tree in Christmas lights.

My emotion

struck a sparkling tone like a xylophone

as we spent the day alone.

Cheer up and dry your damp eyes,

and tell me when it rains

and I'll blend up that rainbow above you

and shoot it through your veins

'cause your heart has a lack of colour,

and we should've known

that we'd grow up sooner or later

'cause we wasted all our free time alone.
