childhood friends ship trope flashbacks, so many fanfics...

Is this song from a musical? It has that vibe to me

This sounds like They Might Be Giants crossed with Bowling For Soup. Absolutely amazing! 

there are no words to describe my love for this song

Bro this is CRACKED. The childrens piano, the kickass vocals... i mean, its no wonder i always come back to this song when its SO FUCKIN GOOD

this song reminds me of when me and my cousin did something like this and we always got in trouble for it bc no one knew what we meant

From the album ‘Beneath The Brine’ (2014) • Pay what you want http://tndr.lv/fam-crest

State your name
State your case
'Cause the lines were drawn
Do you love me babe?

Now you say,
Lover stay
Warm these bones my dear
Light my heart afire!

I know you never mean to say
All of the awful things you say
But oh God, the reason is yours
Oh God, the reason was yours
You smile

I howl to the moon, to the stars
To the way that we were
Howl to the moon, to the stars
When the weight of the world
Is just too much for you

Now I wait
As love and fate
Echo from your lungs
Do you want me babe?

Here you state
That a storm is waiting dear
Turn the lights down low
‘Cause one of us is surely gone

I know you never meant to stay
I know love we weren't meant to be
I know you never meant to go break my heart of gold
But oh God, the reason is yours
Oh God, the reasons are yours tonight
We're smiling

Forever lost together
Forever howling at the moon
‘Cause it's just too much for you

Forever lost together
Forever howling at the moon
When it's just too much for you

I'm gonna kiss, gonna kiss, gonna kiss your lips
I'm gonna make sure dear that my love sticks
I'm gonna shake, gonna shake, gonna shake your legs
I'm gonna make make make make make you beg

I'm gonna make sure that your heart is true
I'm gonna say here, "Darling, I love you!"
I'm gonna make sure that you love me too
Do you love me dear? Do you love me here?

I'm gonna break break break break you dear
I'm gonna shake shake up all your fears
I'm gonna take take you down my dear
Do you love me dear? Do you love me dear?

I'm gonna make make you love me dear
I'm gonna break break you down my dear
Tonight I'll smile 

You’ll howl to the moon, to the stars
To the way that we were
'Cause it's just too much for you

Forever lost together
Forever howling at the moon
'Cause it's just too much for you

Forever lost together
Forever howling at the moon
'Cause it's just too much for you

The brainchild of frontman Liam McCormick, The Family Crest began as a recording project in 2009 with co-founder/bassist John Seeterlin. “We always liked making music with people—getting a bunch of people together and singing. So we put ads everywhere,” says McCormick. “We posted on Craigslist and emailed old friends from school.” The outcome was greater than the original duo imagined, with 80 people credited on the first recording the band produced. From that a seven-piece core band emerged, though the Crest boasts over 400 “Extended Family” members.

The Family Crest - Howl

From Wikipedia:

"An idioglossia is an idiosyncratic language invented and spoken by only one person or very few people. Most often, idioglossia refers to the 'private languages' of young children, especially twins, the latter being ... commonly referred to as twin talk or twin speech."

Lyrics:

Fritzy was the TV, sorta work and sorta doesn't
Like the snowy out the window was the fuzzy on the screen
And snorey-borey were the little toys upon the floory
And the neighbor kids were always kinda mean
So criss-cross sat and chitter-chat, our days were spent conversy
Interspersy little words our very own till we'd forget
Just where the English end and where our little words beginned
And ennui aid and time abet et ceter-eter-ret-set-set-set

We take a syllable, the funnier the better
We say it till we make it be a word
Lexicon of beg and borrow
Idioglossary are oh,
Isn't it the bestest thing you ever ever heard
Understood by no one but
The two of us and you know what
I mean when all I'm saying is a-la-a-wah-a-oh
It's something magical, absurd, and so
Much fun, this thing that we both know

So we made a language and we meant to keep it secret
But the words were so hilarious we had to share them all
We put it alphabetic and we gave 'em definitions
And we wrote 'em out in crayon on the wall
Well, Momma didn't really take a liking to the mural
Truly, artistry is never understood within its day
But maybe, in the end, we like it better as an enigmatic
Game that only we can play, it's siblinguistic anyway

When you walk away from fear

(Dabchick Cover) under paris skies

V1
Welcome to Lady Hell
there's no men among the creatures
Cause we prefer to customize every feature
To make sure that hades is the bane of every lady in the the world, whether she's a woman or a girl
V2
You may expect to encounter cliches
Of endless chores, thankless children to raise
But trapping women in a kitchen is too kitsch to be a prison
But here's the real smite of the feminine afterlife

C1
Though there's a crowd in her cell
everyone's preoccupied with everyone else
She can never ever edge a word in herself
Cause no one will listen to her in lady hell

For as sad as it seems
Somehow she’s still holding on to all of her dreams
Even though we know she’ll never break from this spell (whoa, oh, oh)
She can't let go in lady hell

v3
Look around there are no tricks to pass the time
Forever occupied with greener grass upon her mind
and finds no satisfaction in the finest of distractions
Though she dolls herself up she will never quench her passion

We theorized that the greatest form of torture 
is to keep her here and to endlessly ignore her
Took it to market and we did obtain
loneliness is our darkest brand of pain

c2
Though there's a crowd in her cell
everyone's preoccupied with everyone else
She can never ever edge a word in herself
Cause no one will listen to her in lady hell

For as sad as it seems
Somehow she’s still holding on to all of her dreams
Even though we know she’ll never break from this spell (whoa, oh, oh)
She can't let go in lady hell

Bridge
Ahhhhh, Come on there's always room
Ahhhhh, We've saved a place for you

c3
Though there's a crowd in your cell
everyone's preoccupied with everyone else
You can never ever edge a word in yourself
Cause no one will listen to you in lady hell

For as sad as it seems
Somehow you’re still holding on to all of her dreams
Even though we know you’ll never break from this spell (whoa, oh, oh)
You can't let go in lady hell

You’ll never break from this spell
You can’t let go in Lady Hell
