hyperreal

a stretch of road, a strip of film, a car that goes wherever it will, with the windows down, you know the drill, and every scene's a different place, every minute's a mile i embrace, 'cause i would go anywhere, as long as it means your face pressed to the glass, of the car i'm driving way too fast, towards neon cities, shining so pretty, i watch the tape, i press rewind, cut out the parts where we're not doing fine, so we stay pretty, so you still love me, i wanna be back in your atmosphere, lay on my back 'til the feeling's hyperreal, and my lungs begin to heal, i wanna take back all the things i said, subvert the actors and actresses, make my life a movie where you're the highlight reel, the moon's a stone, i've seen it up close, you keep it in a jar, the car careens, we stay in place, every minute's a knot that you unlace, cause i would go anywhere, as long as it means my face pressed to the glass, of the car you're driving way too fast, towards neon nothing, just to feel something, i wanna be back in your atmosphere, lay on my back 'til the feeling's hyperreal, and my lungs begin to heal, i wanna take back all the things i said, subvert the actors and actresses, make my life a movie where you're the highlight reel, we blur past everything, i zoom in on your crooked smile, we blur past everything, i wanna stay inside your head for a little while longer, it's the scene when the wind and i play with your hair, it's the part when the tape ends and you are no longer there, i wanna be back in your atmosphere, lay on my back 'til the feeling's hyperreal, and my lungs begin to heal, i wanna take back all the things i said, subvert the actors and actresses, make my life a movie where you're the highlight reel, we blur past everything, i wanna stay inside your head for a little while longer
