Moving Pictures, Silent Films lyrics

Oh, wake me please, when this is over
Oh, when the ice is melted away
And the hunger returns
I will feel the same but older
And they'll be twice the man that I thought I was

Where have you been?
And what have you done?

I've been under the ground
Reading prayers
From this old book I found
Under the ground, saving it up
And spending it all

On moving pictures
Silent films
Moving pictures
Silent films

Oh, is this the dream I've been saving?
Oh, where the heart beats slower and slower
To almost nothing, almost nothing, almost nothing

I took care for longer
At least something beautiful
Out there in the spotlight
But turned around softly
Turned around, squinting

It's all they heard was headlights
And then the truth
The truth was unbearable
Oh, and iminent bearing down on
These two shadowed animals

Called painting a dotted line
Called painting a dotted line
Called painting a dotted line

Where have you been?
And what have you done?

I've been under the ground
Reading prayers
From this old book I found
Under the ground
Saving it up, and spending it all

On moving pictures
Silent films
Moving pictures
Silent films
