Owl City - Paper Tigers (Lyrics) 

Now that Owl City has been inactive for years now, what I can only do is to get back on his precious musics. These are like gems that remains timelessly shimmering and I am going to be back for all of the years I will be living. Thats how his music goes for me.

I don't like it when people refer to Owl City as "them", because Owl City IS Adam Young. He tours with others for his concerts but HE IS Owl City.

I used to love Owl City, but then for a while I couldn't listen to his music because it sounded too happy for me. But now I feel like I can start enjoying his songs again. And the thought of that honestly kinda makes me wanna cry.

It's sad this song isn't available on iTunes or Spotify. I haven't even seen it on any of his albums. I've only been able to find it on RU-vid. It's a shame because this is my favorite by him. ❤️❤️

There's honestly not a single song of his that I don't like :) I wish more people listened to more of his work than Fireflies or Good Time

2016, still in love with Owl City. Edit: 2020, still coming back to this gem. :,)

Girl, I LOVE his music, too and I'm black. Adam is so talented and just because he's white doesn't mean black people can't get into his music, too. I love Owl City and I am not ashamed to admit it.

Of course God cares about you. He cares about everyone and he loves each and everyone of us. And you are saying you had a "shitty childhood" but your current life doesn't suck too much, does it. After few years whatever bad stuff is happening will be over and God will have taken you to a better place because he loves you.

I will never stop loving this song! Wish it was released officially :(

I can't imagine songwriting ever gets better than this....Adam Young is a uniquely gifted & inspirational talent ....

he's painting with words. creating masterpieces out of vibrations and waves

Owl city continues to just be him, it's authentic and genuine. This creator is so under appreciated.

Owl City makes so many good songs that 80% of them have to go unnoticed, while the other 20% were brought up to the surface

Another underrated song adam wrote...

"Each sweet dream is a target, and my shots are so consistently wide of the mark."

"The ache in my chest that my heart didn't invite" so sad but true and beautiful.

If Floppy Fish can be turned into a single ten years later, then darn it so can this!

This made me cry because I used to listen to this song all the time when I was younger and gives me such a nostalgic feeling.
