Artist: Various Artists Album: Rent [2005 Movie Soundtrack] (2005) Title: What You Own
Lyrics 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 millenium
You're living in America Leave your conscience at the tone
And when you're living in America At the end of the millenium 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 til you frown
[ROGER] Just don't let go
[BOTH] Or you may drown
You're living in America At the end of the millenium You're living in America Where it's like the twilight zone
And when you're living in America At the end of the millenium You're what you own
So I own not a notion I escape an 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 once the shadows gave way to light
[ROGER] For once the shadows gave way to light
[BOTH] For once I didn't disengage
[MARK] Angel- I hear you- I hear it I see it- I see it My song!
[Roger] Angel- i see you- i see it i see it- i see it My film
[MARK On the phone with 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 millenium We're dying in America To come into our own
And when you're dying in America At the end of the millenium You're not alone
I'm not alone I'm not alone |
