Owl City - Cinematic Lyrics
Go, play!
Your life is a matinee
In a galaxy far, far away
And your debut is a sold out show, yeah
And right out at the opening scenes
The whole crowd's on the edge of their seats
Your worse critics are sitting up front
And they're giving you two thumbs way, way up
You'll be in a league of your own
You'll be stealing their hearts taking Oscars home
So go get 'em and give it some passion
Quiet on the set
With all your heart and soul
Dream big and you can feel the magic
Let the camera roll
Woah, your charm is automatic
Make your cameo
Be yourself
And don't be so dramatic
Go and steal the show
Woah, 'cause life is cinematic
Go and steal the show
Woah, 'cause life is cinematic
Go, play!
Plot twist, it's a trilogy
Cause your life is a thriller
We're dying to see
Your debut is a sold out show, yeah
It's an epic adventure
And you play the hero
And right out at the opening scenes
The whole crowd's on the edge of their seats
Your worse critics are sitting up front
And they're giving you two thumbs way, way up
You'll be in a league of your own
You'll be stealing their hearts taking Oscars home
So go get 'em and give it some passion
Quiet on the set
Lights, camera, action!
With all your heart and soul
Dream big, and you can feel the magic
Let the camera roll
Woah, your charm is automatic
Make your cameo
Be yourself, and don't be so dramatic
Go and steal the show
Woah, cause life is cinematic
Get a top hat and a rabbit
With the crowd and make your magic
Turn the lights down low
(And your dreams will come true)
(May the force be with you)
Knock 'em dead
Go and steal the show
Woah, cause life is cinematic
(Go play!)
'Cause your life is a movie
(Go play!)
Follow your dreams, cause your life is a movie
(Go play!)
Go get 'em and give it your all
Follow your dreams, cause life is cinematic

Chills when the beat dropped
Owl city is the b
Best❤
My favorite musical artist of all time
May the force be with you 👌🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Life is Cinematic!
His music, his essence of positivity has saved me from disasters that could have potentially shattered all of my hope to pieces. I know you won't see this, but I just wanna say that Adam....thank you for everything. U dunno what u mean to ur fans, what u mean to me.
All true, but I’m still washing my bowl and sweeping the floor.
He added Star Wars to this song that’s crazy and funny 😳😂!
ahhhh, so nice revisiting all of owl city
pls create a 2nd independent album!
Is he am independent artist now?
I have loved, love, and always will love Owl City <3
Been listening all Owl city music since 6grade,now am an electrician and never regret.
If one's life is like a film reel, then you keep moving forward, no matter what or who it may be that cannot handle who you are, because you know what makes life so amazing, it's *You*
Best Part : 3:18
Owl City and Smallpools should collab ;)
Is from “SHK HeroForce vs Avengers”?

It's so beautiful, I love it! It's sad that not much people know about this masterpiece.
Go Playyyyyyy King Of Dream~Pop!!! 💙🌌✨
Life is CINEMATIC!!!
magical one
Like the truman show
I love this as the speed of 1.5x it’s even better that way ! 😀
I went to a concert on this tour!! It was incredible and something I'll never forget. Thanks to all of Owl City for a wonderful show :)
Adam has been close to my heart since the first song Galaxies. Owl city is still close to me very much. Used it for my music project in College
Did anyone feel like they were talking about Star Wars
I like your music fantastic
What's Vanoss's favorite band
Owl City
You get it because he is an owl.
Owl City has gotten me through the toughest times of my life, Ocean eyes melodic tunes in High School, and this song in particular uplifted and helped me leave a Domestic Violence situation.
Moved to tears. I don’t know you personally Adam, but you have saved countless with your music.
Out of all my favorite artists I only made sure that I saw you live <3
The entire song is about the Star Wars Original trilogy. The debut actor in the lead role: Mark Hamill. The worst critics sitting up front: George Lucas was so worried about the critics and that the movie would bomb so much that he made a deal with Steven Spielberg to earn 2.5% from each of their respective movie's profits (Spielberg releasing Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind that same year). Not to mention most of the production companies he approached denied his idea. When Adam says "May the Force Be With You", it reaffirms that this was the story of the original Star Wars trilogy. There's so many other layers to this song but I think this is the idea with the most impact.
This is part of why I have future visions. 😊
dream big, your charm is automatic...
The ascending synth at the chorus gives it so much energy!
Intro: COCAIIIIIIIIINE
I love this song and owl city but I can't help but to hear that for the intro lmao
Owl 🦉 City 🌃 = 😎😎🔥🔥
The first time I heard this song, I was in the NYC subway, and right when he sang, "pull a top hat, and a rabbit" The train was passing by the subway station with alice in wonderland art with the mad hatter and the white rabbit. This is a magical song.
“Live, camera, action!
This song makes me cry so hard.
Om gosh
Does this song remind anyone else of Owl City's New York City?
this is probably one of the best songs of the cinematic album
"PLOT TWIST: IT'S A TRILOGY"
wait.............
-Reel 1(Fiji Water, The 5th of July, All My Friends)
-Reel 2 (Lucid Dream, Montana, Not All Heroes Wear Capes)
-Reel 3 (Cloud Nine, Be Brave, New York City)
....................dude
Remarkable video.I liked seeing it.
Continue with it .subscribed to your channel.
I will be really thankful for it if you support me too 🙏 😊😃 ❤&✌
Please come to india Owl City
This needs to be my life theme song. I want to go into acting!
Great album for a road trip
Happy Star Wars Day, and may the fourth be with you!!!!!
Namo namo. Thanks modi ji for this music 😊
Good thing I added this to my playlist.
I love owl city i would listen to this when i was like four in the car with my dad. We would blast fireflies in the car
Who else listens to their music in a playlist and play puzzle/calm games? like if yes comment if no
And another "Fireflies" is born!
This song made my day so instantly!
If you think about it, your life is a movie. Life is cinematic.
looking forward to a music vid
wait how can you steal the show if you're the lead role
If you are still reading these I just want you to know that I have depression and your songs have really helped me out. You are such a good song artist and I love how you make songs about actual stuff instead of the new music. Thank you
did anyone else get star wars vibes from this?
It's so refreshing to see a song that's not about women/butts/drinking or sex. I'm glad Adam still makes such inspirational music💙
I will always love Owl city!!! 🤗😍
Soy nuevo escuchando a este ritmo de canciones y la verdad me gustó mucho, por esa energía que transmite sus melodías.
Son de lo mejor Owl City...

Your life is a matinee

Your worse critics are sitting up front
And they're giving you two thumbs way, way up
You'll be in a league of your own
You'll be stealing their hearts taking Oscars home
So go get 'em and give it some passion
Quiet on the set
Lights, camera, action!
With all your heart and soul
Dream big and you can feel the magic
Let the camera roll
Woah, your charm is automatic
Make your cameo
Be yourself
And don’t be so dramatic
Go and steal the show
Woah, 'cause life is cinematic

I think I broke the repeat button

This song describes what Episode 9 is going to have to be to get back the fans that didn't go to see Solo
Nobody can beat adam in lyrics writing😊

May the force be with you

"Turn the lights down low...
And your dreams will come true...
MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU...
KNOCK EM' DEAD!" ; )
God has been telling me in many different ways that I'm going to be a director when I'm older. Last year, I was about to drive home from work, and I asked God if he can give me confirmation that it will happen cause I was very scared it wouldn't. I hop in the car, go to my Owl City playlist on my phone, and this song popped up (cause when you pre order an album, a new song shows up in the album once in a while) so I listened to it, and immediately started crying. This song was practically made for me, and I'm so grateful for Adam (Owl City). Thank you so much for giving us this masterpiece of a song.
like Owl City from 2009, until now still like,love the style,beautiful music and warm voice,peace love feeling ^_^
adam good work.....
Am I the only one who thinks that this song is talking about George Lucas and talking about Star Wars’ success
