A Cinematic Plea for an End

You want me back in slow-mo
 You want a field in sea blue
 You want me in a dress though
 You want a shot in lomo
 My life isn't a movie
 Even if it seems groovy
 There's a place you want to be
 And that's no longer with me
 You want a romance letter
 Written on old time paper
 You wish that you could love her
 But you want the forbidden other
 My life isn't a movie
 Even if it seems groovy
 There's a place you want to be
 And that's no longer with me
 You tell me you want me to stay
 But you want photo every holiday
 To send away in a cruel card
 To show them we are who we aren't
 And if you want lights in your life
 That's fine just let me play lead in mine
 You want my folded number
 Some relic used to feel in love
 You should feel every wonder
 Your ideas are six feet under
 My life isn't a movie
 Even if it seems groovy
 There's a place you want to be
 And that's no longer with me
 You tell me you want me to stay
 But you're in a mess and somehow I'm in the way
 Some hopeful look, some quick relief
 I'm in a book between your teeth
 And if you want lights in your life
 That's fine just let me play lead in mine
 I'm not some light in your life
 You're not a bone in mine
 But there's no wasted time
 I hope you're learning
 You're learning
 You tell me you want me to stay
 We're all gonna get over it someday
 This is always the hardest part
 So if you want lights in your life
 That's fine just let me play lead in mine
