I’m going to the movies

I’m breaking my script

Too many weeks
A passenger seat

150 down the boulevard

Sweet like sugar and led by love
Rally, eat, protest and repeat

For my whole damn life
Turning in on a flicker

Something’s got to give

While there is glass over the floor

The dialogue alone
Am7
Has been driving me insane
If we’re what we eat
C/E
And they own the seeds that we sow
N.C.
GFO GMOs
C C/G
Seeing that I’m a realist
Am7
And maybe that’s alright

Modelo and espresso
Star-seed cards

Laughter made high
C/E
Imperfect I beg to differ
[Chorus]

Wondering, wondering if this’ll work out
