Adrian Borland Cinematic Lyrics

It's been a hundred years
So many wild scenes
There must have been a thousand tears
Spilt on the way
But it's all been so much fun
With the stars from the machine
They brought you night
In the middle of the day
But no-one can see the film that you are in
And they won't pay the price to come in
To your cinematic life

Yes, I understand
Hey no. I really do
When you smile and say
You're never coming back
Because it's all been too much fun
Just to sit in the dark alone
There were times it took the worries off your back But no-one can see the film that you star in
And they won't pay the price to come in
To your cinematic life

Feels like I've known you for a hundred years
So many wild scenes
There must have been a thousand tears
Spilt on the way
But it's all been so much fun
From the screen kiss to the gun
We aimed at everyone
Who blocked our way

And no-one can see the film
That we've been in
From the cutting room floor
Then it's straight into the bin
With this cinematic life
