Another Sad Movie Lyrics

There's another sad movie

Playing outside my window

You're in my bed behind me

Can you tell me it's time to go

I lean my head on the cold glass

A thousand faces pass by every day

A thousand pair of eyes have glanced over me

But none have looked the right way

The street far below is too close

The cold rain leans across the ages

The window is open to tidy the room

Of unsaid words and empty pages

What really belongs to me?

In a place that's so strange

I'm not sure if you're really here

But the hope that you are remains

Well I descend with the rain

To sidewalks filled with eyes looking down

Bound to the ground in fear of the sky

The weight of the sorrow they wear like a crown

I watched the dying passenger

shout affirmations to the cross

No matter how hard he tries he gets no reply

he gets up and mutters your loss

I look up at a poster that says look to the future

I turned and kicked my spur into the dirt

But the embers of a history rises before me

And asked Christ, what's got you so hurt

What really belongs to me

When every scene slips away

Down gutters of memory

Occupying the same endless day

I listen to the last of the hard rain

And ten minutes later I'm left in tears

This storm was only meant to last the night

But I've been here for years

Just a thousand more souls swimming

And in the cold, amongst them rose

Your eyes the colour of a stranger's

Talking like me, wearing my clothes

Well that's the infinite just there

Just outside my window

But there's no one here to show

You're not here to tell me it's time to go

What really belongs to me

When I stand here alone

Broken glass on faces I pass

This view is all I own

A thousand frames flying by

In the silver shades of my night

Movie screen tears, memories and fears

This empty room, blood in black and white
