Steve Skinner - What You Own lyrics

[Mark] Don't breathe too deep Don't think all day Dive into work Drive the other way That drip of hurt That pint of shame Goes away Just play the game You're living in America At the end of the millennium You're living in America Leave your conscience at the tone And when you're living in America At the end of the millennium You're what you own [Roger] The filmmaker cannot see [Mark] And the songwriter cannot hear [Roger] Yet I see Mimi everywhere [Mark] Angel's voice is in my ear [Roger] Just tighten those shoulders [Mark] Just clench your jaw till you frown [Roger] Just don't let go [Both] Or you may drown You're living in America At the end of the millennium You're living in America Where it's like the Twilight Zone And when you're living in America At the end of the millennium You're what you own So I own not a notion I escape and ape content I don't own emotion -- I rent [Mark] What was it about that night [Roger] What was it about that night [Both] Connection -- in an isolating age [Mark] For once the shadows gave way to light [Roger] For once the shadows gave way to light [Both] For once I didn't disengage [Mark] Angel -- I hear you -- I hear it I see it -- I see it My film! [Roger] Mimi I see you -- I see it I hear it -- I hear it My song! [Mark] Alexi--Mark Call me a hypocrite I need to finish my own film I quit! [Roger] One song--glory Mimi Your eyes... [Both] Dying in America At the end of the millennium We're dying in America To come into our own And when you're dying in America At the end of the millennium You're not alone I'm not alone I'm not alone
