this reminds me of all the old times playing with friends online. we'd always play Minecraft and roleplay or play the hive and mini games. sometimes realms or smps. we played always day and night on party's even staying on well we slept. the times..

Have I Outgrown Minecraft?

Rolling out a map i get to work
I’ve always loved the smell of paper
Cartography is fun when we decide where everything resides
I hear a sound, i feel my chest puff up
Men, stand your ground, watch left, right, up, and down

Somewhere beyond that darkness someone is calling my name 
Faintly i hear them say "dinner’s done, turn off the game"

How many times must i write a sad song?
It’s all been leading up to this day
A tune that i’ve been hearing all along
Creative gears, the bolts and screws of my brain
I’ve always felt it coming loose, turning grey
My skull will be a graveyard full of code
I’ll feel it all erode

Somewhere beyond that darkness someone is calling my name 
Faintly I hear them say "dinner’s done turn off the game"
"Dinner’s done, turn off the game"
"Dinner’s done, turn off the-"

Have I outgrown Minecraft yet?
I don’t really know
Every so often I go back
Build another home
Kicking up dirt, I mine a new path
I plant a seed or two
But I never stick around long enough to see it bloom (oooo)

How many times must I die and restart?
It’s all been leading up to this time
The real world’s dim and I only live once
But getting to regen is getting old
I’m standing in the snow yet I’m not cold

Faintly I hear my name
"Dinner’s done, turn off the game"
Bring me back to those days
"Dinner’s done, turn off the game"
"Dinner’s done, turn off the game"
"Dinner’s done, turn off the-"

Have I outgrown Minecraft yet?
I don’t really know
Every so often I go back
Build another home
Kicking up dirt, I mine a new path
I plant a tree or two
But I never stick around long enough to see how much it grew (grew)
Does it matter how much I grew? (grew)

The torches dim, I feel the dark cave in
I’m in the ground, it’s over isn’t it?
I feel so small
Two pixels tall and I
Won't make it home to eat that pie
With him.

Gone By Morning

[Voiceover: yeah, I don’t think my mind’s really changed from the start. Yeah, but I, and you’re right, I can just stick around and figure it out, but I don’t really want to]

I shouldn’t relate to villains in cartoons
As much as I do
Guess that I need to
Grow a handle bar mustache
As soon as I do
I’ll fit the part
That you want me to (but I mean, uh…)

If you really truly want me gone by morning
I’ll do you one better, I’ll head out right now

I want to
Go any way where no one knows my name
Make it an adventure and never ever be the same
And I’d be to blame
Only me to blame
When I miss my appointments
And lose all my friends in this silly game of
Life would be alright if I left tonight
It’d never be the same
I’d gladly take the blame

I want to relate to heroes in cartoons
But I’m no Mary-Sue
Don’t know what to do
I don’t mean to wallow
Here in my sorrow
If heroes don’t cry then neither do I (I don’t cry) (Um but…)

If really truly want me gone by morning
I’ll do you one better, I’ll head out right now

I want to go any way where no one knows my name
Make it an adventure and never ever be the same
And I’d be to blame
Only me to blame
When I miss my appointments 
And lose who I am in this silly game of
Life would be alright if I left tonight
It’d never be the same
I’d gladly take the blame

I’m just a line in your book
You’re all the pages in mine
Why does it seem to happen like that every time
I’m just a line
I’m just a line
I’m just a line
I’m just a line
I’m just a line
I’m just a moment in time
A single beat and then I’m
Gone just as quick as I came
We never get to rewind
I’m skipping town, I’m leaving now, I’m leaving I’m
Leaving before I’m out of time

Cause I, oh I

I want to go somewhere where no one knows my name
Say hi to every stranger
And never outgrow video games
And I’d be to blame, oh I’d be to blame
When I lose my job, to dress like a pirate every day of my 
Life would be alright if I left tonight
It’d never be the same
And I’d gladly take the blame
It’d never be the same
Where no one knows my name (ooo)

Where no one knows my name

lyrics:

Where do snails go during the day?
They’re probably somewhere playing video games
I’m sad they feel the need to go away
Go away

Where’s the chapel where the mantis pray?
The leaves grow green then fall away
In reddish shades that crumple under six long legs
Leading me along, the children sing a song
And I’d like to turn around
But I know I’m not that strong

I’m missing a house
That I’ve never called home
I’m missing a time that I’ve never known
I remember a tree, had a whole leaf of my own
But now we’re reaching spring
Was it just a dream? I don’t know

I don’t know
What do I know?
What do I know?
What do I know?

They warn of snakes in search of prey
The stories scare me so I stay
At the chapel where the mantis pray
And every day
They lead me along
The children hum a hymn
And I’d like to run away
But to leave would be a sin

I’m missing a house
That I’ve never called home
I’m missing a time that I’ve never known
I remember a song, I sung along
But how did it go?
Well, now I’m reaching spring
Probably just a dream
I should let go

Six legs, tippy tappy toes
Climbing to the podium on Sunday
I was a tadpole at the time
So I don’t remember much
About what he had to say

Faces, beady little eyes
Larva always cries
Beetle does the same
Now it remains a dream
A distant memory that itches my brain

Six legs, tippy tappy toes
Climbing to the podium on Sunday
I was a bunny (I was a kitten) at the time
So I don’t remember much
About what he had to say

Faces, beady little eyes
Larva always cries
Beetle does the same
Now it remains a dream
A distant memory that itches my brain

Now it remains a dream
A distant memory that itches my brain

Now it remains a dream
A distant memory that itches my brain

The Chapel (sped up)

Lyrics:

Tell me all about how much you love Florida
What’s she gonna give you we couldn’t give
Tell me all about how much you love Florida
I’ll try and forgive while you get to live

You're gone but I still see you everywhere
Funny how you come and go as you please
And you never liked this town anyhow
So congrats on that, you finally get to leave
So leave

Tell me all about how much you love Florida
Can't go out without her name coming up
Tell me all about how much she was better
Than any of us
Any of us

I’m not gonna follow you around everywhere
Funny how you only try when I make it easy
And you never loved this town anyhow
If you're glad to go I’m not sad to see you leave
If you're glad to go I’m not sad to see you leave

Tell me all about it when you're in Florida
Give me a call so I can hang up
Funny how you're happy just about anywhere
Except here with us

Florida

Lyrics:
I'll wear my slippers to the studio
As I try to write a song
Change the words over and over
Lose each rhyme in the drafts I make

I wanna travel the world 
I wanna stay in my bed
I wanna live but to live you risk
Winding up dead 

You wear your
Slippers in the mosh pit
I'll wear mine jumping on the stage
Someday soon I’ll stop being a caveman
Hibernating in my cave

I wanna live in my bed
I wanna travel the world
I wanna see what the birds 
See tiny people and cars
Perspective is funny

I wanna drown in the sea
But im so scared to drown
I wanna see what the birds see
Without looking down

I’ll wear my slippers on the wrong feet
Change it up every now and then
Someday I may take a run down the street
Bet I’ll still be wearing them

I wanna feel like a God
Wanna feel nothing at all
I wanna plummet to earth
But I, I don’t wanna fall

I wanna drown in the sea but I
i'm so scared to drown
I wanna see what the birds see
Without looking down

You wear your slippers in the mosh pit
I’ll wear mine jumping on the stage
Someday soon I’ll stop being a caveman
hibernating in my cave

I’ll wear my slippers in the mosh pit
you wear yours jumping on the stage
someday soon we’ll all stop being cavemen
Hibernating in our caves

Wanna travel the world
I wanna stay in my bed
I wanna live but to live you risk
Winding up dead 

I wanna drown in the sea but I
I'm so scared to drown
I wanna see whats the birds see
Without looking down
Wanna see what the birds see
Without looking down

Lyrics:
Tea leaves sit at the bottom of my cup
I hate the taste but I’m sick
You heat it and I hold it mostly just to warm my hands
I'm more of a hot cocoa kid

You could never swallow pills when you were young
But now you seem to have no problem

Tea leaves sit at the bottom of my cup
You ask me “jelly, jam, or butter?”
You’re busy in the other room
Doing who knows what
Bread burns, but you make another

Smoke from the toast is a breath of fresh air

Tear drops sit at the bottom of my cup
Why does everyone place faith in the future?
Looking for umbrellas for when the drought is done
We found a pretty one on the computer

I don’t understand why you hurt you
When you take such good care of me

Am I allowed to be sad about these things?

Lyrics:
Dani, where you gonna go?
Broadway someday?
Whatta show you’ll put on and
Dani, Dani, I don’t know
Dani, Dani, I don't know why they give you such a hard time
But the pleasure’ll be all mine someday

To say
“Hey I know her, I know her”
They told her
“Maybe next time”
But she's already gone

Dani, promise you wont stop
Trying till you're at the top where you were born to go
And I don’t know
Dani, Dani, maybe that's why they give you such a hard time
But even when I've no rhymes let to say

I'll say
“I know her, I know her”
They told her “no”
And turned a shoulder
Just to say
“I knew her! I knew her!
I knew her! I knew her! I knew her! 
Before she traveled on”

Dani, where you gonna go?
Broadway someday?
Whatta show you’ll put on and
Dani, Dani you don't know
Dani, just how far you'll go

Lyrics:
I live my life like a coming of age film
Won’t stop for some time
Cause I’m coming of age still
Sometimes people are mean
So I used to hide in the washing machine
But my legs kept on growing
And I got to knowing
That I wouldn’t fit anymore
Sometimes I still go back
But my legs dangle out of the door
Lately skipping on school is the route I prefer to take more

What does that make of me?
Why do I keep on growing?

Looking forward to annual things
Not my birthday, try New Year’s Eve
Once a year we start a new year
Yet again, it’s not guaranteed 
Looking forward to less nowadays
Wonder if age plays a part
Hope my brush doesn’t run out of paint
Before I even start

But where’s my field of flowers?
Where’s the soulmate that I meet by chance?
Least I don’t have to race ‘gainst the terminal tropes of romance
But I wouldn’t mind rain
Or to only speak solely in
Poetry quotes or a dance
Or a ticket to France
I find myself stepping on ants accidentally

What does that make of me?
Why do I keep on growing?
What does that make of me?
Why do I keep on growing?

I realize that I’m coming of age still
I think I might be just coming of age till the day that I cease to exist
Roll the credits, I insist
Someday I may just wrinkle 
And shrink down enough to still fit
The washing machine
And I’ll hide from my worries as my credits roll down on the screen
