Video
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The world is an illusion
Like a giant movie screen
A stage set in confusion
As it calls you for the scene
It can pull you down from off the shelf
Like a faded movie queen
And it tells you this is what you should be
Then it winds you up till nothing’s left
It can really slow you down
And for fantasy it gives you speed
Don’t you feel it
Yes you should know
We’re living in a video
Another reel, in another show
We’re living in a vídeo, oh oh oh
I’ve made a decision
I’ve identified my role
Then world means nothing to me
If I sacrifice my soul
You can play a part and win a heart
Be the hero of that time
There’s enough around for your own vanity
Don’t you think it’s time we made a choice
Stop pretending to be blind
To the world to come and humanity
Don’t you feel it
Yes you should know
We’re living in a video
Another reel, in another show
We’re living in a video
Stories we make up
Roles that we take up dreaming
Images fade like
Strars on a foggy night
Things we go after
They may require screening
Get into motion, walks straight into the light
Into the light
Don’t you feel it
Yes you should know
We’re living in a video
Another reel, in another show
We’re living in a video, oh oh oh
Can’t you feel it
Don’t you feel it
We’re living in a video
Another reel, in another show
We’re living in a video, oh oh oh
