He didn't look like he wanted me to leave
When I backed up the car
Hug the ones you love
When they are standing in the same driveway you are
The weekend goes by so fast
We are all so busy
I'm driving on the Five alone back into the city
The mountains cut against the sky
It's like I'm in some dream
The supporting character to something else's lead
I'm gonna take every line I get
And go as far as I can go
They're gonna hear me in the balcony
As well as the very front row
I know I'm lucky to be in this movie at all
And when the credits roll
I'll stand proud, clap, and stand tall
The movie goes by so fast
It's been a month and a year
The worlds a hurricane
You and I are just a single tear
The mountains cut against the sky
It's like I'm in some dream
The supporting character to something else's lead
I don't know as much
About the world as I thought I did
The puzzle pieces of this masterpiece
Couldn't possibly fit
And I can feel my body breaking
Where it used to grow strong
Statements are questions
Where I turned right I might've been wrong
The mountains cut against the sky
It's like I'm in some dream
The supporting character to something else's lead
The supporting character to something else's lead
