I find it hard to put on a smile, when I’m thinking of things I’d rather not remember
I cannot take my mind off of what’s been done, I cannot focus my thoughts cause I’m in disarray
Brand new sunshine, another fresh start, why can’t I be as happy as others seem to be?
Get out of bed, don’t hide away, time to put up a fight and seize the day
Once again, I’m stuck on yesterday, all my mistakes and times I played the fool
Need to put those thoughts aside. Time to move on; time to be strong, with the dawn of a bright new day.
Turn up the radio (turn it up!)
It’s the dawn of a bright new day
Turn up the radio (turn it up!)
Nothing’s gonna hold us down today

Verse 1
Look out the window see the world
Your happiness and dreams are out there
There’s so many people just like you
Who want them too and want to find them
bridge
So go outside and hear the sounds
The music’s playing time to meet us
We are spreading love with our melodies
And we’re determined to unify the world
Verse 2
See kind faces hear the cheers
Working together for the future
We have each other and so much more
Making music with game boys and computers
Spirits high and laughter too
new stars arise in the community
Choose your weapon and join the scene
chiptune forever, peace and unity

To me there is nothing worse than sitting around all day long on my own
I get so excited though, when I know, I’ll be amongst my friends so far from home.
Being here is where I come alive
you bring peace to the storm inside me,
I always want to spend time with you;
it’s fun no matter what we do.
Playing games, having laughs, letting music take our inhibitions away
I love your company so much I’d choose to have this every day
Sunshine, you fill me up with sunshine
The warmth in my hearts like Sunshine,
You fill me up with sunshine
And I want to share this feeling with you.
Sunshine, you fill me up with Sunshine,
Sunshine, I want to share this feeling with you
Sunshine, I’m glowing just like Sunshine,
Sunshine,and I really hope you’re feeling it too.
All thoughts of self-doubt disappear when I see your smiles and I hear your cheers,
We dance together and we have a good time and I have no fears
When I leave it’s always sad, but I know that I’ll see you again
And when that time comes my friends, my excitement will not be contained.
Being here is where I come alive;
you make me feel so good inside.
I always want to spend time with you
I get this feeling like I’m full of…

Dance dance the night away, there’s a party going down in the Milky Way.
Dance dance on a lunar base, there's a celebration going on in outer space.
Journey out so far, a disco in the stars
Journey out so far, We’re Fueled by Starlight and candy bars
The countdown has begun, let the engines ignite
We’re taking off to our rendezvous
A supernova setting on a cosmic dance floor
Let the fire in your heart, let the music excite you
All the galaxies that we pass by
Strewn across the boundless stippled sky
Every hopeless world that we might see
We’ll give to them joy and laughter again

I’m in love with cocoa
I can’t get enough of chocolate,
I’m in love with cocoa
Let’s all eat some chocolate cake, hey!
I can’t help it; it puts me in a daydream
Flavour so amazing its magic in disguise
Sugar makes me feel good, gets my blood pumping
Keeps me feeling oh so energized
Bridge
Snap off a chunk and put it in your face.
Such a delight it makes my heart race
It’s a craving that I can’t control
Forever wanting more because…
I want it now and I’ll share it with you
Come along and see how much it means to me
Tearing off the wrapper, it fills me up with glee
….It’s just so motherf**king tasty

When I’m fighting monsters or exploring the unknown,
There’s so many things to see and do but it’s not always fun alone,
I can’t stop dreaming, of playing games with you,
So come on baby play with me and I’ll be your player two.
I can’t stop dreaming, of playing games with you.
If you’re the tank- I’d keep you healed, - against our might- every boss would yield.
With your sword up high and your health restored, together we can go for a new high score
And when its time to retire, lets go ‘afk’ down in goldshire
Life has never felt so right, we do dungeons every night.
I can’t stop smiling, now I’m playing games with you,
So come on baby play with me now that I’m your player two.

Just how long has it been since I last heard from you?
But I know love will win the day
If I won’t see you soon will you send me something special?
and I will keep you locked inside my dreams, and there I will stay
Until i see you again
You’ll always be my fantasy.
Do you miss me? As I miss you.
Now I’m home under these gray clouds
Left pining for better days,
And As I stand in the rain, I think~ of-you
I recall how nervous we both were
But in the end the smiles we shared,
our time was a gift, a gift too good for me,
Can we stand the ^test of ti/me?
Will it be an eternity,
until you’re in my arms again
You’ll always be my fantasy.
Do you miss me? As I miss you.
Memories dull the pain cause I miss you, and I don’t know when I’ll see you but your always with me

Rise up, don’t put yourself down.
Happiness is inside every single one of us,
Together we will find it in you, together we can make the world better.
Find the things that you love in life and spread your wings like a butterfly,
never let go of your dreams and believe in yourself, you can reach the sky
Give hope to those lost to despair and misery, you tell them ==Say
Every cloud has a silver lining, take my hand/love and we’ll find it
Keep on, projecting positivity. Always aim to be the best that you can be.
Project positivity in all that you do, we could all unite the world in harmony.
Keep on, projecting positivity. Be an upbeat inspiration to society.
With an optimistic outlook make the world less blue
And everybody that surrounds you will be happy
Time to fight, give your best and slay, you got this.
you’ll spread that sunshine feeling
with our energy and positive vibes yeah, We’ve got the power (We’ve got the power!),
Stamping out negativity and we’re armed
Positive weaponry from operation rain-bow storm
We hold the future in our hands come along and be a part of the phenomenon
Keep on, projecting positivity. Be the best that you can be.
Project positivity in all that you do, we could all unite the world in harmony.
Keep on, projecting positivity. Be an upbeat inspiration to society.
With an optimistic outlook make the world less blue
And everybody that surrounds you will be happy
Shout out with open hearts, stand up and we’ll be united.
