Anthony Rapp - What You Own Lyrics

Lyrics What You Own - Anthony Rapp



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 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 isolatiing 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 film!
Roger
Mimi-I see you- I hear it-
I hear it-
I hear it my song
MARK (On the phone)
Alexi-Mark
Call me a hypocrite
I need to finish my
Own film
I quit!
Roger
One song glory
Mimi your eyes
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
