Method Acting lyrics

There's no beginning to the story

A bookshelf sinks into the sand,

And a language learned and forgot in turn

Is studied once again,

It's a shocking bit of footage

Viewed from a shitty TV screen,

You can squint at it through snowy static

To make out the meaning,

And keep on stretching the antennae

Hoping that it will come clear

We need some reception, a higher message,

Just tell us what to fear

Cause I don't know what tomorrow brings,

It's alive with such possibilities

All i know is I feel better when i sing,

Burdens are lifted from me,

That's my voice rising!

So Michael, please keep the tape rolling

Boys, keep strumming those guitars

We need a record of our failures

Yes we must document our love

I have sat too long in my silence

I have grown too old in my pain

To shed this skin, be born again,

Oh it starts with the ending

So thank you friends for the time we shared

My love stays with you like sunlight and air

Oh, how I truly wish I could keep hanging around here

But my joy is covering me,

Soon I will disappear

It's not a movie,

No private screening

This method acting,

Well, I call that living

Yea, it's like a fountain,

A door has opened

We have a problem with no solution

But to love and to be loved

So, I've made peace with the falling leaves

I see their same fate in my own body

But I won't be frightened when I'm awoken from this dream

And returned to that which, gave birth to me

And the story goes

And the story goes

It goes on and on and on and on...
