Method Acting |
I, basically, woke up and--- |
The oldest story… |
It was sun--- |
How long will it take to get to my voice? |
Well I, I took history class and I--- |
Amazing grace, how sweet--- |
…Saturday and that’s why the… |
I realized that I like what it is… |
…saved a wretch like--- |
There is no beginning to the story |
A bookshelf sinks into the sand |
And a language learned and forgot, in turn |
Is studied once again |
It’s a shocking bit of footage |
Viewed from a shitty TV screen |
You can squint at it through snowy static |
To make out the meaning |
And keep on stretching the antenna |
Hoping that it will come clear |
We need some reception, a higher message |
Just tell us what to fear |
Cause I don’t know what tomorrow brings |
It’s alive with such possibilities |
All I know is I feel better when I sing |
Burdens are lifted from me, that’s my voice rising |
So Michael, please keep the tape rolling |
Boys keep strumming those guitars |
We need a record of our failures |
Yes, we must document our love |
I’ve sat too long in my silence |
Have grown too old in my pain |
To shed this skin, be born again |
It starts with an ending |
So thank you friends for the time we shared |
My love stays with you like sunlight and air |
Oh I truly wish I could keep hanging around here |
My joy is covering me, soon I will disappear |
It’s not a movie, no private screening |
This method acting, well, I call that living, yeah |
It’s like a fountain, a door has been opened |
We have a problem with no solution |
But to love and to be loved |
So, I’ve made peace with the falling leaves |
I see their same fate in my own body |
But I won’t be frightened when I’m awoken from this dream |
And returned to that which gave birth to me |
Gave birth to me, gave birth to me, gave birth to me |
And the story, and the story goes |
And it goes on and on and on and on |
It’s going on and on and on and on (x6) |
