Rent - What You Own lyrics

Your rating:

MARK

Don't breathe too deep

Don't think all day

Dive into work

Drive the other way

That drip of hurt

That pint of shame

Goes away

Just play the game

You're living in America

At the end of the millennium

You're living in America

Leave your conscience at the tone

And when you're living in America

At the end of the millennium

You're what you own



ROGER

The filmmaker cannot see



MARK

And the songwriter cannot hear



ROGER

Yet I see Mimi everywhere



MARK

Angel's voice is in my ear



ROGER

Just tighten those shoulders



MARK

Just clench your jaw till you frown



ROGER

Just don't let go



BOTH

Or you may drown



You're living in America

At the end of the millennium

You're living in America

Where it's like the Twilight Zone

And when you're living in America

At the end of the millennium

You're what you own

So I own not a notion

I escape and ape content

I don't own emotion -- I rent



MARK

What was it about that night



ROGER

What was it about that night



BOTH

Connection -- in an isolating age



MARK

For once the shadows gave way to light



ROGER

For once the shadows gave way to light



BOTH

For once I didn't disengage



MARK

Angel -- I hear you -- I hear it

I see it -- I see it

My film!



ROGER

Mimi I see you -- I see it

I hear it -- I hear it

My song!



MARK

Alexi--Mark

Call me a hypocrite

I need to finish my own film

I quit!



ROGER

One song--glory

Mimi

Your eyes...



BOTH

Dying in America

At the end of the millennium

We're dying in America

To come into our own

And when you're dying in America

At the end of the millennium

You're not alone

I'm not alone

I'm not alone
