Movies Lyrics

When we're forced to pretend

Cause we struggle to live like we do

I make believe we're with friends

And together we push right through this

Push right

And we go to the movies

And we go the mall

And we'll go see a movie

We see them all

And I think this tragedy

Was meant for the screen

So alert the academy

We're caught in between

Someone tell me my next line

Someone tell me I look fine

I'm ready for my closeup now

But I need my space somehow

Caught up in the change

Regrets in the wings they breakthrough

But the new scripts are strange

And the camera keeps clinging to you

Clinging

You're convinced this tragedy

Was meant for the screen

So forget the academy

At least you are seen

I cannot tell you your next line

I can't pretend you're looking fine

I'm ready to be close right now

But you need your space somehow

I saw your name in headlights

Right above my own

The letters didn't look right

It's the last touch we've known

So let's enjoy the show

Forgive us as we go

The charade only ends

When we pretend it's over so

And I think this tragedy

Was meant for the screen

So forget the academy

At least we'll be seen

I cannot tell you your next line

I can't pretend I'm doing fine

I'm ready to be close right now

I'm ready to be close right now
