Lyrics The Best Film He Ever Made - Sad Lovers & Giants

Like an empty church when the lights go out
It was dark inside his complex ego
Almost God but not in heaven
Saddest man that lived in legend
I can see his films and I know his fate
How the perfect screenplay came to light
I′ve read about his degradation
Watched his past turn to cheap sensation
People we've learned to be
Losing ourselves inside
Damning eternally
Mostly immortal lies
When they dragged him out from the smashed-up car
There were crowds of hungry press around him
Slow to fade like flesh dissolving
Lift his life with the cameras rolling
People we′ve learned to be
Losing ourselves inside
Damning eternally
We might have seen a star that shined all day
If he was alive to shout his name
