his hope is Yeshua, the way the truth the life. sing to Jesus and live, i love his hyms. Jesus loves you my friend more than you could imagine ! be blessed
I love this song! I suffer from anxiety and it feel nice to know that there is someone else out there who understands and can make something beautiful out of it
During the lockdown at my school cowering in the corner, the last lyrics replayed in my head. "the End is uncertain and I've never been so afraid but I don't need a telescope to see that there's hope and that makes me feel brave"
Zomygosh so cute!! I understand this to be a Christian song but at the same time I keep thinking of a story I'm writing. A father who loses the chance to be with his daughter while she's still so young. Going through life feeling so depressed and defeated until she's finally grown up and invited him to her wedding.
"Is that the light at the end of the end of the tunnel or just the train" It's talking about dying or sitting at the entrance of a tunnel that a train is commonly through, trying to end your life because if your depression. "Depression please cut to the chase and cut a long story short oh please be done"
Owl City was my entire childhood, and I've had "is that the light at the far end of the tunnel, or just a train?" stuck in my head for about a decade. Finally bit the bullet and tracked down this song again :')c lyrics as clever and powerful as ever, of course.
"Depression please cut to the chase and cut a long story short Oh please be done, how much longer can this drama afford to run" this speaks to me so much
i think its about being depressed and uncertain of his life, then he found god, and he felt brave again. thats why it has a happy sound throughout the whole thing.
Is it just me or does it sound like this song is about his conversion? Or maybe some other significant experience he had in his faith... especially the last chorus ... And I gotta say I can't help but love the line "But I don't need a telescope to see that there's hope, and that makes me feel ... brave" - SO true! :)
Beautiful. It tells an awesome story of a holy revelation. Owl city, if you are reading this, I think you are amazing and I am so glad you've found Jesus in your life
For my entire I life I always thought it said I forget the last time I felt brave by just calling security XD A WHOLE NEW WORRRRLD. Now I know the correct lyric XD
There is something about these songs that reel me in. Maybe its the sweetness of the beat and the adorable lyrics that just catches my heart the only way Owl City can do. By the way, good job on the video :)

Why is that a bad thing that Owl City is Christina? It doesn't make them any worse. They are all so talented and so amazing that you should be happy for them. Don't stop listening to them just cuz they're Christian.

He sings christian stuff too? COOL! =) Or is this his only song, it doesn't matter, i'm glad he's a christian. You can tell me i'm stupid for believing what i do, but, it won't effect me, and i don't hate u, for dislikeing me or beliveing what you belive, we all live on the same earth and we're all people, why hate. Owl City, is an inspiration, and anyone can like his music no matter what. WHOO! OWL CITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D
KimzEsther Really it's Matt Thiessen??? :D I already loved this song but that just multiplied the awesomeness! I've been trying to figure it out for ages, I knew I recognised the voice. Thanks :) x

This song is really different from other Owl City songs, the way he sings, the way it starts off...It's not necessarily better...it's just a weird change...
The last minute of this song contains some of the most beautiful music and lyrics I've ever heard in my life... So underrated.
Agreed. He's so talented both in music and lyric writing. It's great to see him put it to good use!
Totally agree, this song got me out of some dark holes.
So true. Feels like my life story.
Galaxies: "Oh telescope, keep an eye on my only hope."
Tidal Wave: "I don't need a telescope to see that there's hope."
Cave in too
That just randomly occurred to me and why I came to this video! Haha!
So hope exists with or with out a telescope I guess.
his hope is Yeshua, the way the truth the life. sing to Jesus and live, i love his hyms. Jesus loves you my friend more than you could imagine ! be blessed

I hate it when I'm on an Owl City playlist while I'm about to fall asleep and then the intro to this wakes me up.
+Questioner7125 Haha! :)
The happy depression song!!! :) :) :)
that makes no sense but its true .-.
Actually, in my opinion, the happy depression song is Bullet by Hollywood Undead
😑🫶
"Depression please cut to the chase, and cut a long story short, oh please be done, how much longer can this drama afford to run?"
I repeat this a lot
This song always makes me feel better :3
Surprisingly under-rated song, Funny really. I discovered Owl City this way! Thanks hipster radio! XD
I don't need a telescope to see that there's hope and that makes me feel... Brave :)

I remember when Morgan and Anissa tried to kill Payton. Their interrogations were interesting. Especially Morgan's.
That’s why it’s the most replayed at “It’s hurts to wake up whenever you’re wearing thin alone on the outside, so tired of looking in”
"Depression please cut to the chase and cut a long story short

Owl Ciy is soo amazing. It really makes people feel good whenever they feel sad or alone :)
A friend of mine wouldn't quit bugging me to listen to this- can't say I'm disappointed! :)
Good song. The entire thing was very poetic. *applause*. I suggest the instrumental too.
i love this song, it always puts in the greatest mood
My favorite song of Owl City.
Beautiful. It tells an awesome story of a holy revelation. Owl city, if you are reading this, I think you are amazing and I am so glad you've found Jesus in your life
No one can pick a favorite Owl City song! Owl City's too amazing!!!
In Christ Alone by Owl City is really cool too. :D
As someone who is mainly a punk rock can why do I love songs like this
For my entire I life I always thought it said I forget the last time I felt brave by just calling security XD A WHOLE NEW WORRRRLD. Now I know the correct lyric XD

OWL CITY + RELIENT K= AWESOMENESS
There's a reason this video doesn't have any dislikes!! xD
Did it take anyone else a long time to realize that Matt Thiessen is the one singing for half of each verse?

You'll never look at this song the same way again.
Nice song..
Anyone else hear the little breath at the beginning of the video? Like, when you completely replay?
Parul Singh that's weird

You'll never listen to Tidal Wave the same way after learning the girl who murdered her for slender man would sing this song in her interrogation.
