Anthony Rapp - Losing My Religion текст песни

Текст песни Losing My Religion - Anthony Rapp



There is no future
There is no past.
(Spoken)
I stood on 44th Street and looked at my watch.
Fuck.
No way was I gonna be on time for my audition.
20 minutes late, I arrived at the New York Theater Workshop.
"Sorry!"
I jumped up on the stage and sang.
(Sung)
Oh life is bigger
It's bigger than you and you
Are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no
I've said too much
I set it up
That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
(Spoke)
I had read somewhere that in the south,
Where REM was from,
Losing your religion meant falling in love.
I wasn't trying to sing it to anyone in particular,
But to everyone.
(Sung)
Consider this
Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip
That brought me to my knees failed
What if all these fantasies come
Flailing around and now
I've said too much
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I though I saw
You try
But that was just a dream
Try
Cry
Why try
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream
(Spoken)
"Thanks!"
That was the director, Michael Greif.
"Was that it?"
Auditions always ended so quickly.
"I wanna introduce you to Jonathon Larson.
He's the writer of the show."
Jonathon,
A young looking, tall guy who's ears stuck out a bit too much,
Was all hunched up in his seat
Chewing on a pencil.
"You were in Dazed and Confused, weren't you?
I loved that movie."
"Thanks!"
Michael handed me a cassette and some sheet music.
"We'd like you to come back and sing the title song."
"Sure!"
This couldn't have come at a better moment.
It was September, 1994,
And I had just begun my first ever survival job
Since moving to New York
Five years earlier.
Pouring Decaf Double Tall Skin
No-White Mochas
At Starbucks.
Acting work had dried up over the past year
And I was now more broke than ever.
