| If my life were a movie
|
| There would be a sunset
|
| And the camera would pan away
|
| But the sky is just a little sister
|
| Tagging along behind the buildings
|
| Trying to imitate their grey
|
| The little boys are breaking bottles
|
| Along the sidewalk
|
| The big boys, too
|
| The girls are hanging out at the candy store
|
| Pumping quarters into the phone
|
| 'cause they don’t want to go home
|
| And I think
|
| What if no one’s watching
|
| What it when we’re dead, we’re just dead
|
| What if it’s just us down here
|
| What if god ain’t looking down
|
| What if he’s looking up instead
|
| If my life were a movie
|
| I would light a cigarette
|
| And the smoke would curl around my face
|
| Everything I do would be interesting
|
| I’d play the good guy
|
| In every scene
|
| But I always feel I have to
|
| Take a stand
|
| And there’s always someone on hand
|
| To hate me for standing there
|
| I always feel I have to open my mouth
|
| And every time I do
|
| I offend someone
|
| Somewhere
|
| But what
|
| What if no one’s watching
|
| What if when we’re dead, we’re just dead
|
| What if there’s no time to lose
|
| What if there’s things we gotta do
|
| Things that need to be said
|
| You know I can’t apologize
|
| For everything I know
|
| I mean you don’t have to agree with me
|
| But once you get me going
|
| You better just let me go
|
| We have to be able to criticize
|
| What we love
|
| Say what we have to say
|
| 'cause if you’re not trying to make something better
|
| As far as I can tell
|
| You’re just in the way
|
| I mean what
|
| What if no one’s watching
|
| What if when we’re dead
|
| We’re just dead
|
| What if it’s just us down here
|
| What if god is just an idea
|
| Someone put in your head
|
| I mean what
|
| What if no one’s watching
|
| What if no one’s watching… |
