One last thing before bed.
I love RENT very much, as you may know. iTunes... gah. Perfect timing. YOU CAN HAS SONG LYRICS, because they make me happy.
What You Own
Mark-
Don’t breathe too deep
Don’t think all day
Dive into work
Drive the other way
That drip of hurt
That pint of shame
Goes away
Just play the game
You're living in America
At the end of the millennium
You're living in America
Leave your conscience at the tone
And when you’re living in America
At the end of the Millennium
You're what you own
Roger-
The filmmaker cannot see
Mark-
And the songwriter cannot hear
Roger-
Yet I see Mimi everywhere
Mark-
Angel’s voice is in my ear
Roger-
Just tighten those shoulders
Mark-
Just clench your jaw till you frown
Roger-
Just don't let go
Both-
Or you may drown
You're living in America
At the end of the Millennium
You're living in America
Where it's like the twilight zone
And when you’re living in America
At the end of the Millennium
You're what you own
So I own not a notion
I escape and ape content
I don’t own emotion- I rent
Mark-
What was it about that night?
Roger-
What was it about that night?
Both-
Connection- in an isolating age
Mark-
For one the shadows gave way
To light
Both-
For once I didn’t disengage
Mark-
Angel I hear you- I hear it
I I see it I see it
My film!
Roger-
Mimi I see you- I see it
I hear it I hear it
My song!
Mark (on phone) Roger-
Alexi- Mark One song glory
Call me a hypocrite Mimi
I need to finish my
Own film Your eyes
I QUIT!
Both-
Dying in America
At the end of the Millennium
We're dying in America
To come into our own
And when you’re dying in America
At the end of the Millennium
You're not alone
I'm not alone
I'm not alone
