We're rolling down the highway
I'm rolling down my window
Then I stick my hand out
And fly with it as it flowsIf I started thinking
Instead of looking back
You wouldn't see me sinking
Before they covered up the cracksThis is what it feels like, coming down
We're all in the movie, can't turn it off or shut it down
This is what it feels like, if that's so
Then where is the director to tell us where the hell to go?I've got this film in my head
It's scripted all that I've said
Let's make it of real before we're dead
Because we'reClose enough, we're diamonds in the rough
Today's the day we finally say
Can't turn this movie offAnd if we're told, we might as well
Just blow this all to hell
It's not a film or a fantasy
We're not just make believeThis is what it feels like
This is what it feels likeSo this is what it feels like
Running through my lines
I'm never the pretender
I find it's just a waste of timeThis is what it feels like
When the hero dies
On to the next one
Funny how time fliesI've got this film in my head
It's scripted all that I've said
Let's make it real before we're dead
Because we'reClose enough, we're diamonds in the rough
Today's the day we finally say
Can't turn this movie offAnd if we're told, we might as well
Just blow this all to hell
It's not a film or a fantasy
And we're not just make believe
It's not a film or a fantasy
We're not just make believeAs long as I play me
And as long as you play you
God, I love this scene
I gotta thank the cast and crew
Don't let the credits roll
Don't let the credits rollBecause we're close enough
We're diamonds in the rough
Today's the day we finally say
Can't turn this movie offAnd if we're told, we might as well
Just blow this all to hell
It's not a film or a fantasy
And we're not just make believeIt's not a film or a fantasy
And we're not just make believe
It's not a film or a fantasy
We're not just make believe
