Life Isn’t Like the Movies Lyrics by Allan Delure

Life Isn’t Like the Movies

0

[Verse 1]
I’ll go back to California where angels used to reside
I miss all the fancy cars that drove down the boulevard
I knew I was lost in reality since that party in Malibu
The music and the neon lights manipulated the truth
[Pre-Chorus]
And life isn’t like the movies, baby
All the cruel hearts hide behind the scenes
All the pretty faces aren't what they seem
Lights, camera, action!
[Chorus]
It’s Friday night and the stars are fading
These pills became my new happy ending
This is not what I bought a ticket for
But my body keeps asking for more
[Post-Chorus]
Wake up, stop living in this golden lie
Hold your breath, close your eyes, say goodbye
[Verse 2]
I’ll go back to California where angels used to revive
If you want to have an identity, you have to pay a price
Had a few drinks in Long Beach, had some bar fights
Even though I was sober, I never played my cards right
[Pre-Chorus]
And life isn’t like the movies, baby
All the cruel hearts hide behind the scenes
All the pretty faces aren't what they seem
Lights, camera, action!
[Chorus]
It’s Friday night and the stars are fading
These pills became my new happy ending
This is not what I bought a ticket for
But my body keeps asking for more
[Post-Chorus]
Wake up, stop living in this golden lie
Hold your breath, close your eyes, say goodbye
Wake up, stop living in this golden lie
Hold your breath, close your eyes, say goodbye
[Bridge]
The road is long but I know every mile
Don’t worry about me ‘cause I’ll be fine
Many years on the run, now I’m divine
I’m sure Heaven waits on the East side
[Chorus]
It’s Friday night and the stars are fading
These pills became my new happy ending
This is not what I bought a ticket for
But my body keeps asking for more
[Post-Chorus]
Wake up, stop living in this golden lie
Hold your breath, close your eyes
Say goodbye
