about

you know when you have those moments where you feel like you're in a movie...

lyrics

no champagne flowing
phone aint ringing
in this life
am i not in the running?
now the chips are down
there's no one round
vying for position
it's a big competition

if my life were a movie
it'd be sixteen hours long
with no beginning or resolution

you don't want my essence
you want my successes
i won't sit around waiting on your call
so take all of me or take nothing at all

if my life were a movie
pain and suffering would mean something

where did the time go?
did i get what i deserve?
all those plans to conquer the world
walking on eggshells
plagued with doubt
of being caught out
a sham, some kind of villain

if my life were a movie
pain and suffering would mean something

hard wired, double vision
bust out of this system
always thinking up a grand conclusion
but it's all so underwhelming

you don't want my essence
you want my successes
i won't sit around waiting on your call
so take all of me or take nothing at all

no champagne flowing
phone ain't ringing
yeah! i'm not in the running
