Man in a Movie Songtext

Man in a Movie Songtext
There′s a man in a move that I'd like to be
There′s a boy in the story who longs to be free
There's a girl on the sidewalk and she wants to be
With a man in a movie that I'll never see
There′s a ship on an ocean that I′ll never sail
There's a circular notion that dooms us to fail
And they′re serving that potion at the places I haunt
Where I get what I need and I hate what I want
Oh I get what I need but I hate what I want
'Cause we let them all bleed for our own rock of salt
And we turn a blind eye to the suffering and pain
′Til a man in a movie reminds us again
Well there's peace in a valley still somewhere I know
Where the people will rally and fight for their home
And I love you darling but this I won′t flaunt
That I get what I need and I hate what I want
Oh I get what I need and I hate what I want
'Cause we let them all bleed for our own rock of salt
And we turn a blind eye to the suffering and pain
'Til a man in a movie reminds us again
And we go on believing it′s all in the name
Of a Hollywood ending the reason we came
Of a Hollywood ending the reason we came
There′s a boy in the story who longs to be free
There's a girl on the sidewalk and she wants to be
With a man in a movie that I'll never see
There′s a ship on an ocean that I′ll never sail
There's a circular notion that dooms us to fail
And they′re serving that potion at the places I haunt
Where I get what I need and I hate what I want
Oh I get what I need but I hate what I want
'Cause we let them all bleed for our own rock of salt
And we turn a blind eye to the suffering and pain
′Til a man in a movie reminds us again
Well there's peace in a valley still somewhere I know
Where the people will rally and fight for their home
And I love you darling but this I won′t flaunt
That I get what I need and I hate what I want
Oh I get what I need and I hate what I want
'Cause we let them all bleed for our own rock of salt
And we turn a blind eye to the suffering and pain
'Til a man in a movie reminds us again
And we go on believing it′s all in the name
Of a Hollywood ending the reason we came
Of a Hollywood ending the reason we came
