Started out like, in the movies But it ended, like a bad dream Curtain opened, heard the crowd roar This one's a repeat, seen it before
Rewind to the start before it all went wrong What's going on?
Fast forward to the end, after everyone's gone home And they've forgotten it all
This ain't a movie that I wanna see A tragic story, starring you and me Yell "Cut!", we're stuck inside this scene This is heartache on the big screen The clock is ticking, and I'm out of time The camera's rolling, and I forgot my lines My script is ripped and now I see
This is heartache on the big screen This is heartache on the big screen
Curtain closes, oh that's cliché Like a story of a bad day Back to square one, where I started As I stand here, broken-hearted
Fast forward to the end, after everyone's gone home And they have forgotten it all
This ain't a movie that I wanna see A tragic story, starring you and me Yell "Cut!", we're stuck inside this scene This is heartache on the big screen The clock is ticking, and I'm out of time The camera's rolling, and I forgot my lines My script is ripped and now I see
This is heartache on the big screen
If Hollywood could see me now I'd get the starring role But they won't so I'll just keep on acting a fool
This ain't a movie that I wanna see A tragic story, starring you and me Yell "Cut!", we're stuck inside this scene Yeah!
The clock is ticking, and I'm out of time. The camera's rolling, and I forgot my lines. My script is ripped and now I see
This is heartache on the big screen This is heartache on the big screen This is heartache on the big screen
