Making Movies

This story's told in flashback otherwise it makes no sense

I'm searching through these films as some kind of self defence

You're always making movies

That's really what you do

You're always making movies

Arranging subtle clues

You re-arrange the lighting

You're editing events

You make a silent gesture

You're quietly intense

You're living in a movie

That's really what you do

Your music strange and almost as beautiful as you

You're always making movies

Some kind of perfect life?

Some scenes of glowing summer

Glimpses of perfect times?

Some lifetimes lived in flashback

Wandering from set to set

A sudden giant close-up

A hint of strange regret

You're always making movies

That's really what you do

You're never quite in focus

Some sequences confused

This story's told in flashback otherwise it makes no sense

I'm searching through these films as some kind of self defence

I'm always watching movies

Your movie's all of you

I understand that movies are really what you do

You're always making movies...

I'm always watching movies...
