The Best And The Borrow

I want a National Geographic

I want to see the world

I'm just a mess of old photographs and videos

And all of the best friends in life that I've met

We're just actors from movies and roles from books I've read

Feeling dead like history

Pages of bad magazines

I don't want to see the world in black and white

Feeling dead, I'm history

Dreaming's got the best of me

I don't want to see the world in black and white

I want to be a successful man

I want to dent this world

I'll stop off to give autographs and cameos

And all of the places in life that I've seen

Are vacations I stole from the drive-in silver screen

Feeling dead like history

Opportunity, remember me?

I don't want to see the world in black and white

Feeling dead, I'm history

Experience never got to me

And I don't want to see the world in black and white

Oh, white

So long

Help me 'cause I don't belong

So long

I want to come along

I want the shadow of Peter Pan

I want to own this world

I want to never wake up from my dreams

'Cause all of my life that I've made sweet has soured

I've seen my own death on the prime time hour

Feeling dead like history

Riddle me with tragedy

I don't want to see the world in black and white

Feeling dead, I'm history

Overthrow me, catastrophe

I don't want to see the world in black and white

Alright

So long

Help me 'cause I don't belong

So long

Everything real always feels so wrong

So long

I don't want to borrow my best anymore

So long

Now I'm swinging to the motions of

(So long)

What once was where everything seemed possible

(So long)

'Cause in dreams I never had to push and shove

(So long)

And now I'm swinging to the motions of

(So long)

I don't want to sing this song anymore on my own

(So long)

'Cause everybody's out there livin' the life that I thought I owned

(So long)

And now I'm waiting to find out now what I thought, I thought I was

(So long)

And now I'm swinging to the motions of

(So long)

Love, love, love, love, love
