Stranger Than Fiction

[verse 1: outasight]

It's sometimes stranger than fiction

But the weird things seems to be that

The storyline never stick to the script

And the characters involved don't match the description

We all tied up yet we still tripping

Over the small things which seem to all bring me

Back to when i started, a hopeless romantic left broken hearted

A bright eye teen seemed to disregard

Any advice given about my future plans

I had to go and make things hard

Was told to go to school, was told to be a man, damn

But i didn't grow up or be the lucky winner on "who wanna blow up? "

And that's fine, shit happens

All the trouble makes for a better storyline

And i tried...

I tried to make something out of nothing before

I tried to leave the past on the cutting room floor

But the story runs until the credits roll

But i do know that i tried

I tried to put the blame on everyone else

Looking for excuses rather than some help

I know that feeling when you don't fit in

It's stranger than fiction

[verse 2: outasight]

Play your part in the scene, never knowing lines

A beautiful backdrop, role undefined

September nights where breezes brushed across my back

Staring at the sky, fading in the black

Scratch the fingernails 'cross the storyboard, i'm bored

I may need to be woken up from years before

And when the plot begins to twist and turn

I'll try my best to keep myself on the road and learn

[verse 3: outasight]

Quiet on set, lights, camera, action

Take one, one take, no mistakes

Cut, check gate now roll the tape

Separate the real from the fake

Put the score on the board and it sounds great

No dialogue force on, course the break

Take five, try and enjoy the day
