We´re rolling down the highway
I´m rolling down my window, then
I stick my hand out, and fly with it as it flows
If I started thinking, instead of looking back
You wouldn´t see me sinking, before they covered up the crack

This 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?

[Pre-Chorus]
I´ve got this film in my head
They´ve scripted all that I´ve said
Let´s make it real before we´re dead

[Chorus]
Because we´re close enough, we´re diamonds in the rough
Today´s the day we finally say, you can´t turn this movie off
And if we talk, 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

So this is what it feels like, running through my lines
I´m never the pretender, I find it´s just a waste of time
This is what it feels like, when the hero dies
On to the next one, funny how time flies

[Pre-Chorus]
I´ve got this film in my head
They´ve scripted all that I´ve said
Let´s make it real before we´re dead

[Chorus]
Because we´re close enough, we´re diamonds in the rough
Today´s the day we finally say, you can´t turn this movie off
And if we talk, 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 believe

As long as I play me, and as long as you play you
God I love this scene, I´ve got to thank the cast and crew
don´t let the credits roll, don´t let the credits roll!

[Chorus]
Because we´re close enough, we´re diamonds in the rough
Today´s the day we finally say, you can´t turn this movie off
And if we talk, 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 and we´re not just make believe
it´s not a film or a fantasy, we´re not just make believe
