I Would Like One Zooey Deschanel, Please

They said we won't make it out alive 
And truth be told I think they might have been right 
Because since that night 
It seems the trees in the sky are fighting whales the size of a tightrope... 

...of indeterminable length 
I feel all over the shop  [bad word]  
I feel I'm blending in with the canopy 

You could say that we're all drowning 
But I feel the floor leaving me 

Don't wait up at night 
Breathing slow and hoping that I'll 
Come back soon, I might 
If I have time 

I'll impart this poor excuse 
But you'll have to realise that 
I'll come back when I'm ready 
And I've got the wings of a shark in the atmosphere 
Because a sky safari 
Is better than no safari 
And let me tell you this you'll wish you could, 
see more colours than the spectrum parameters allow
