Stay out super late tonight, picking apples, making pies, put a little something in our lemonade and take it with us, we're half-awake in a fake empire
Tiptoe through our shiny city, with our diamond slippers on, do our gay ballet on ice, bluebirds on our shoulders, we're half-awake in a fake empire
Turn the light out say goodnight, no thinking for a little while, lets not try to figure out everything at once, It's hard to keep track of you falling through the sky, we're half-awake in a fake empire

Chinese translation
I sailed a wild, wild sea
climbed up a tall, tall mountain
I met a old, old man
beneath a weeping willow tree
He said now if you got some questions
go and lay them at my feet
but my time here is brief
so you'll have to pick just three
And I said
What do you do with the pieces of a broken heart
and how can a man like me remain in the light
and if life is really as short as they say
then why is the night so long
and then the sun went down
and he sang for me this song
See
Ragged Wood
Whoa-oh-oh
Come down from the mountain, you have been gone too long
The spring is upon us, follow my only song
Settle down with me by the fire of my yearning
You should come back home, back on your own now
The world is alive now, in and outside our home
You run through the forest, settle before the sun
Darling, I can barely remember you beside me
You should come back home, back on your own now
In the evening light, when the woman of the woods came by
To give to you the word of the old man
In
The Girls

well i thought that
we all cared about peace
and i thought that
we'd all cry about love and loss
and i thought that
we were somehow holding on
but i'm just standing here
no one should have to
live all of their life on their own
no one should have to
live all of their life on the
every time i think about
what i can do
it just slips away
and every time i think that
we can make things work
well it just slips away
and i turn on the news
and there's always some dude
who's relentlessly bringing me
