June was the lobster shell,
I dug by hand, a haven that hid me well,
Beneath the sand,
The white windy waves washed in,
But I stayed dry,
The great breakers broke again,
'Cause I'm on and off inside.
And then, when the empress run aground,
And my eyes turned blue and green,
I heard a gorgeous sound,
And that's when it became a dream,
When the sky fell in,
When the hurricanes came for me,
I could finally crash again,
And that's how I became the sea.
I wrenched the engines off,
And dragged them down,
The depths turned the iron soft,
As they swiftly drowned,
And I brought the ocean side,
To its rusty knees,
As I felt the even tide,
Deep in my shallow dreams.
And then, when the empress run aground,
And my eyes turned blue and green,
I heard a gorgeous sound,
And that's when it became a dream,
When the sky fell in,
When the hurricanes came for me,
I could finally crash again,
And that's how I became the sea.
(When the sky fell in),
When the sky fell in,
(When the sky fell in),
When the hurricanes came for me,
I could finally crash again,
And that's how I became the sea,
That's how I became the sea,
That's how I became the sea.
I was about 13-14 when I first heard this song. Forgot all about it until I had my baby girl several months ago. Her ocean eyes reminded me of it. ❤️🌊
She reminded you that All Things are Bright and Beautiful…
I first heard this song when I was around 3 or 4 and now it hits me with an intense wave of nostalgia whenever I hear it
@@laserbeambear636Life really is so Cinematic! 👍🏻
Oh, that's so adorable!
@@PotatoTimeYT Dang, child! How young are you now??? I was a teenager when this song first came out 😭
He should release all the bonus tracks in one album. Bombshell blonde, how i became the sea, top of the world
💯
This song is ABSOLUTELY the most underrated track of All Things Bright And Beautiful. This is an exquisite work of art. I can't believe how pleasant this is to listen to no matter how many times I play it.
This is his best song. No question.
Listening to it as a child was the best thing that could happen to me.
I FORGOT ABOUT THIS SONG. I COULD CRY
Have listened to Owl City for years. Why is this the first time I've heard this masterpiece!?
because this is a bonus track for itunes, and not on any other music streaming platform. It's actually on spotify, but you can't play it since it's blocked in many regions
also you should listen to "shy violet" if you haven't already, it's part of the bonus track, and is really good
SAME
A year late lol but it’s a bonus track that’s exclusive to iTunes
It's a bonus track
how did the lower quality upload of this song get more popular? this one is higher quality, and it’s and older video, this just baffles me.
shows how powerful the song is just on it's own
@@balloonxm y’know... you’re absolutely right
@@earlyowlYT hi early
@@nightchemistry bRUH
For some reason starting at 1:14 it's kind of nostalgic like my whole life flashing before my eyes. And I have only known about Owl City for about a year and a half.
same, idk it just feels very nostalgic
It almost sounds like Minecraft 😅☺️
Why is this song not on Spotify? I need it in my playlists!!
This is literally me rn
That's what has been bugging me 😭 my playlist remains incomplete because I can't add it there
@@inalegwuanyebe6945 I bought it off iTunes then added it to local files in Spotify
It was a japanese bonus song with shy violet. I remeber it was available on itunes in germany, but somehow never on spotify. Too bad 😢
This song is just... WOWZA. It’s one of the most unique songs I’ve ever heard, truly. I wish SO BADLY it was on All Things Bright and Beautiful. This and Shy Violet. This is just so imaginative and mysterious. It takes you to another world. It’s like something you’d hear in a dream.
Wow, this one actually has good sound quality! :) Thanks for that
Adam young is not only an artist, he is a great thinker💗💗💗💗you can notice that by reading his lyrics
June was the lobster shell
I dug by hand
A haven that hid me well
Beneath the sand
The wide, windy waves washed in
But I stayed dry
The grave breakers broke again
As I nodded off inside
And then, when the empress ran aground
And my eyes turned blue and green
I heard a gorgeous sound
And that's when it became a dream
When the sky fell in
When the hurricanes came for me
I could finally crash again
And that's how I became the sea
I wrenched the engines off
And drank them down
The depths turned the iron soft
As they swiftly drowned
And I brought the oceanside
To its rusty knees
As I felt the even tide
Deep in my shallow dreams
And then, when the empress ran aground
And my eyes turned blue and green
I heard a gorgeous sound
And that's when it became a dream
When the sky fell in
When the hurricanes came for me
I could finally crash again
And that's how I became the sea
When the sky fell in
(When the sky fell in)
When the hurricanes came for me
I could finally crash again
And that's how I became the sea
That's how I became the sea
(How I became the sea)
That's how I became the sea
(How I became the sea)
(How I became the sea)
(How I became the sea)
(How I became the sea)
(How I became the sea)
(How I became the sea)
(When the sky fell in)
(When the hurricanes came for me)
(I could finally crash again)
(And that's how I became the sea)
When I listen to this song, all of a sudden I became that kid who was in the school, with no worries, with no responsibilities.
This is the first time I hear this song in such good quality! Thank you for that. It's an amazing song one of my favorites!

I didn’t have this bonus song on my cd as well as Lonely Lullaby. Never heard these beautiful tracks and boy did I miss out 😮
Reminds me of when I used to do ecstasy. I bet this sounds incredible on ecstasy!
wow. great way to ruin such a pure and innocent song.
@@c-lexis8747 nothing can ruin this song. It remains pure and innocent
you should do ecstasy while listening to this song and tell us how it went
@@nyamcallister7208 they don't make ecstasy like they did back in 2000, so it's pointless to even try now.
I jammed to all his albums the other day while on LSD. Hella beautiful. High quality headphones make a huge difference as well.
2:36 CAAAAAVE INNNNNN!!!!!! XD
Sanober Imteyaz XDD
*also Tip Of The Iceberg
Cave in on steroids haha
Ahhhh you did notice!
Yeah. I love the motif of repeating that riff.
Most beautiful owl city song in my opinion 🤷🏻♂️
I have always thought so too. ♥
Man, this is a very good song, maybe the 3rd best song of the album, but also nobody knows it cause it was an extra song of the japan album version :(
This is incredible. How come he has so many songs that have never been released on an album?
first time hearing this.... THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL IM CRYINGGGGG ToT
Sounds like looking into an alien forest with bioluminescence flora
Also reminds of subnatica
no way i discovered this now 💀
better late than never, would've been a disaster not finding this song at all
@@cloudscape5996 facts, its one of my most listened songs lol
@@thisdeko well wasn't this a quick reply hahah love that.. for me i started working out recently and added this in my mp3 player playlist to listen to while/post working out and part of that routine i'm under an open night sky doing pull ups, listened to this quite a few times then and remembered how good this song is yet again.. tbh when i heard it first, discovering owl city in 2017/18, i don't think if i really understood the beauty of this song as much as i do now.. it's truly an amazing masterpiece i could only hope more people find out and realize its beauty..
@@cloudscape5996 thats great! i should start working out more often haha. I see many people discovered Owl City after Cinematic, me too. Im now obsessed and hes my favorite artist by far, i love him, hes amazing, i hope i can watch him live some day
The melody of this song sound very similar to the “radiate” iPhone ringtone!
WHY THE FRICK IS THIS NOT ON SPOTIFYYYYY
itunes exclusive
i heard this in another video but could just tell it was owl city so i came looking
2:22
Idk why this came to my mind, but I just randomly remembered my MP3 player that my sister tricked me into paying her the 40$ that I had been saving for over a year... But oh well, I lost it however I'm angry because there was songs and recordings that were removed off everywhere and no one will ever hear them on the internet
Why isn't this on Spotify? :0
It was an exclusive track on the Japanese release of this album, specifically for iTunes if I recall correctly.
its an itunes exclusive
Just feel the lyrics it gives me goose bumps 🙂❤️
Anyone else notice the cave in tune?
Adam used to use that leitmotif a lot in his songs for some reason. I remember hearing it in other songs too. I don't hear it anymore in his newer stuff but I wouldn't mind if he used it again. :)
Also leads well into the album titled “ocean eyes” hmmmmmm
YES
@@selinnazsur2328 what other songs did you notice it in? this is the only one i can recall, but i’m curious!
0:13 this sounds like a more beautiful version of the iPhone ringtone
The apple radiate ringtone sounds like this
Amazing. Just amazing.

Did anyone notice the nod to Cave In?
Is it me or the lyrics sound like you're being transformed into some Lovecraft creature and returning to the sea?
Красиво
Is this what inspired the Radiate ring tone?
I guess it inspired the iPhone ringtone
he did all those ringtones look it up
🦉🎶 X..
Do anyone think the instrumental version of the song is good for Minecraft
Hmm I dunno I think it wouldn't fit in
An Owl City Fan yeah it would
