What+You+Own

Sorry! Im obbsessed with musicals! this happens to be one of the songs from Rent I listen to over and over again...

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
