Living in the world of someone else’s dream

what a drag to know that yer nothing at all

waiting for your cue to move out of the scene

C#m D E D
and in the courtroom scene your sitting

with you back against the wall
C#m D E D
defendant passes you and 50 other wannabees

C#m F#
just stay in your chair
C#m F#
don't dare say a word
C#m A B
just gasp - the verdicts read thru you

Chorus
Living in the world of someone else’s dream
what a drag to know that yer nothing at all
just some backdrop prop that is imitating life
waiting for your cue to move out of the scene

Verse
and in the battle scene your holding
a plastic gun stand at attention
script calls for you to die
with other wannabees

feign a shot in the gut
fall down in the mud
you'll wind up on the cutting room floor

minutes of the movie no one even knows you

don't wanna be the one who's dying in the first five

in the first five
