Jump out into the ocean
Cast off, spread out over the sea
Branch out, break free, I want to sail away
Sail to where this mundane drone is far away
Trading white walls for blue horizons
And bluer skies and endless nights
Cause my home is where my heart is
And my heart is somewhere far from here
And I will dive into summer
Where certainty and sanity are nowhere near me
(beat) I-- want-- to escape
And I could take you away
If summer started today
So come with me to where the ocean meets the sky
And we'll fly off, doze off with our toes in the sand
Break out, make out, you and I can sail away
Where all of this monotony is far away
We could finally get out of this place
And kiss our way through endless nights
Cause my home is where my heart is
And my heart is somewhere far from here
And I will dive into summer
Where certainty and sanity are nowhere near me
(beat) I--want-- to escape
and I could take you away
if summer started today-ay-ay
Let's make it happen
Let's make it you and me and the sun
Let's make it happen
It's better than just staying here
And wearing out and fraying here
It's better than just giving in
Just to be someone
I just want to be someone
Why can't I be someone
So let's jump out towards the sun
I wanna know
(just to be someone)
I wanna go
(just to be someone)
I wanna see
(jump out)
You and me and breaking free out into the ocean cause ho--
--me is where my heart is
You and I are somewhere far from here
And we will dive into summer
Monotony and certainty are anywhere but here
(beat)Come-- on-- and escape
And take me away
Our summer will start today
Our lives will start today
I'll blow your heart away
If only summer could start today

Diapers, Formula, Eyeliner.
Baby nation
With a big-girl mind
Maturity combine
Speed up the turbine
Painting faces of acceptance
Of security
Of self-made self
Ugly words on pretty paper
Prostitution of youthfulness
To the guiles of the accelerating wind
To speed up time, and make it last longer
And come faster, and look better
Sooner
Stronger
For what is there to replace
On an unblemished face
But naivety and silly things
Purity, the profound stings
Of a youthful mind
All thrown away, all left behind
To spin the earth like a turbine
And make something quite unlike its kind:
A world manufacturing beauty
And yet a world completely blind
With a big-girl mind
Maturity combine
Speed up the turbine
Painting faces of acceptance
Of security
Of self-made self
Ugly words on pretty paper
Prostitution of youthfulness
To the guiles of the accelerating wind
To speed up time, and make it last longer
And come faster, and look better
Sooner
Stronger
For what is there to replace
On an unblemished face
But naivety and silly things
Purity, the profound stings
Of a youthful mind
All thrown away, all left behind
To spin the earth like a turbine
And make something quite unlike its kind:
A world manufacturing beauty
And yet a world completely blind

Song I wrote: RUPERT
This song goes out to my favorite guy ever, Rupert Twopert.
I could sing all day about you.
I"ve got your heart in the grass
Oh the field on the back road now
the clouds are spelling pictures in your eyes
Boy, you can't back down now
You've got the heart of a saint
And the smile of an angel
But you're making me such a sinner
So let's run away from home
Or make a day of it and kiss
Either way you'll still be a winner
Why'd you have to let me know
Cause I'll never let you go
So here we go
I wonder how long you've known
You've got a first-class, one-way ticket
To leave me here alone
You've got your head on my shoulder
And your face on my mind, and so
Today I'm yours, but tonight you're mine
Don't stop believing in what you'll leave behind
Oh Rupert, you're flyin'
Whoa
You're the boy all the good girls love
And I want so bad to know you
I'll cut your hair if it makes you weak
And makes you stay and lets me show you my love
So take a plane far away
And rip my heart from my ribcage
Keep it safe if it happens to make it
Or you can throw it away
In the ocean, it's okay
it won't take much more for you to break it
Maybe you're the perfect man
Take me with you if you can
So here we go
I wonder how long you've known
You've got a first-class, one-way ticket
To leave me here alone
You've got your head on my shoulder
And your face on my mind, and so
Today I'm yours, but tonight you're mine
Don't stop believing in what you'll leave behind
Oh Rupert, you're flyin'
Whoa
And I've never flown first class
And I doubt I ever will
And I come back from my vacations, unlike you
I got to hotels, and baby you go home
But I'll come back in a week and then we'll both be alone
I've got your heart in the grass
Of the field on the back road now
The clouds are spelling pictures in your eyes
Bou you can't back down now
You've got the heart of a saint
And the smile of an angel
But you're making me such a sinner
So let's run away from home
Or make a day of it and kiss
Either way you'll still be a winner
Why'd you have to let me know
Cause I'll never let you go
So here we go
I wonder how long you've known
You've got a first-class, one-way ticket
To leave me here alone
You've got your head on my shoulder
And your face on my mind, but now
I'm always yours, and you'll never be mine
Do you even believe in what you'll leave behind
Oh Rupert, you're flyin'
Home
I could sing all day about you.
