Lyrics:

You Would Not Believe Your Eyes
If Ten-Million Fireflies
Lit Up the World
As I Fell Asleep

Cause they fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
Youd Think Me rude
But I Would Just Stand And Stare

Id Like to make myself believe
That Planet Earth turns Slowly
Its hard to say That Id Rather Stay awake when Im Asleep
Cause Everything Is Never As It Seems

Cause Id Get A thousand Hugs
From Ten-thousand Lightning Bugs
As They Try To Teach me How To Dance

A Fox Trot Above my Head
A Sock Hop Beneath My Bed
A Disco Ball is Just Hanging By a Thread

Id Like to make myself believe
That Planet Earth turns Slowly
Its hard to say That Id Rather Stay awake when Im Asleep
Cause Everything Is Never As It Seems
(When I Fall Asleep)

Leave My Door Open Just a Crack
(Please Take Me Away From Here)
Cause I Feel Like Such an Insomniac
(Please Take Me Away From Here)
Why Do I Tire of Counting Sheep
(Please Take Me Away From Here)
When I'm Far Too Tired To Fall Asleep

To Ten-Million Fireflies
I'm Weird cause I Hate Goodbyes
I Got Misty Eyes
as They Said Farewell
(Farewell)
But I'll Know Where Several Are
If My Dreams Get Real Bizarre
Cause Id Save a Few
And Id Keep Them In A Jar

Id Like to make myself believe
That Planet Earth turns Slowly
Its hard to say That Id Rather Stay awake when I'm Asleep
Cause Everything Is Never As It Seems
(When I Fall Asleep)

Id Like to make myself believe
That Planet Earth turns Slowly
Its hard to say That I'd Rather Stay awake when Im Asleep
Cause Everything Is Never As It Seems
(When I Fall Asleep)

I'd Like to make myself believe
That Planet Earth turns Slowly
Its hard to say That Id Rather Stay awake when Im Asleep
Because My Dreams Are Bursting At The Seems

  • @SluggerJR When a population is strained, as in too many, then nature provides a release valve, in the form of a percentage of the population which is not reproductive. As a part of the natural order of things, such a percentage of the population do indeed provide a service. Often such non-reproductive individuals manifest creative tendencies, (even hyper-creative gifts, i.e. Michelangelo, Leonardo Di Vinci, Van Gough, etc., thus providing even more for the benefit of society and culture.

  • der song ist so richtig schön!

  • It's a good song. Accept that, and people for who they are. Chill!

  • @billmtracer Oh dear God..... You are saying being a homosexual is natures way of population control? Your perspective of population makes no sense. The earth has not been 'completely' covered by man, just the within borders that man has ignorantly established. Why did you mention dead artist? Because they did not part take in sexual intercourse ? As proof to natures influence on social 'well-being'?

  • this song is awsome i bet others to i wonder who dont like this song i fell sad they dont got the same emeotes i have first i look at the order of pokemons then this song here so i type this song in and my eyes fell like a beach whasoooooo

  • @billmtracer So many of these individuals who struggle, are most likely bi-sexual and struggling because of the pressures of the afore mentioned cultural sexual suppressive forces in homophobic societies all over the world.

  • We don’t have all the answers. So far as changing goes, don’t forget the bi-sexual factor. According to Masters and Johnson's research, the sexual orientation of most people are varying degrees of bi-sexual, with a small percent exclusively heterosexual or homosexual at each end of a balanced bell curve, implying a natural pattern. However, sexual behavior falls into a skewed curve, very unnatural, and based on unhealthy cultural sexual suppression.

  • @billmtracer

    But then how would you explain the percent of the homosexual population that struggle on whether they are or aren not, or even those that leave that life and choose to be straight, your nature argument would require people to be "Born" homosexual, but if a person was born that way they should not be able to choose to be straight if they were truly born that way. Just as a bird who wants to be a dog cant remove its wings and put on a tail, or change its feathers for fur, impossible.

  • @mmsb4169 There are many attributes of nature that when viewed superficially might appear to be as a result of thought. For instance symbiotic relationships between vastly different types of life forms have evolved into existence with many living things. Sometimes we marvel at how such symbiotic relationships could have come about. It is by a similar mechanism that such a population control attribute could spring forth, without thought or emotion necessarily guiding it.

  • @billmtracer

    I agree completely on your theory that understanding will inspire open mindedness, however i must disagree with your theory of the "release valve" even as a piece of a puzzle. Applying your theory to homosexuality as a certain evolution that nature created to slow the rate of population increase, would imply that nature itself is its own entity, with thoughts and emotions. Your theory is implying that nature thought "Maybe if there were non-reproductive individuals=less population"

  • @mmsb4169 No, I'm not just trying to say that; I am saying that, and quite successfully, I might add. It is not a total explanation, but it is a piece of the puzzle. There is still much to learn on this topic, but if that learning is to take place, then people must be open minded about it, and willing to expand their understanding. The first step in expanding our understanding of this is to acknowledge that we have not yet got it fully figured out. That should give us motivation to learn more.
