Living in a Movie Lyrics

I'm alive, but I am living in a movie
Far and high, even the drugs won't help me
No wonder why, I've given up reality
This world is mental, don't wanna be part of it

So I close my eyes, now I believe what I see
My paradise, I am living in a movie
No compromise, I can go where I want to
I'm sick of lies, apocalyptic figure disguised

I don't mind if I'm acting weird it's the only way to be
I don't get people and they don't get me and I
Feel like I'm alone and way too stubborn and I
I just wanna ride on the ocean tide and buy a piece of sky

I'm alright, but I've been living in a movie
Someday I will have to wake from this dream
I'm simplified, in this microcosm of mine
I'm between the lines

I don't mind if I'm acting weird it's the only way to be
I don't get people and they don't get me and I
Feel like I'm alone and way too stubborn and I
I just wanna ride on the ocean tide

I don't mind if I'm acting weird it's the only way to be
I don't get people and they don't get me and I
I don't mind

I'm alive, but I am living in a movie
Far and high, even the drugs won't help me
No wonder why, I've given up reality
This world is mental, don't wanna be part of it

So I close my eyes, now I believe what I see
My paradise, I am living in a movie
No compromise, I can go where I want to
I'm sick of lies, apocalyptic figure disguised

I don't mind if I'm acting weird it's the only way to be
I don't get people and they don't get me and I
Feel like I'm alone and way too stubborn and I
I just wanna ride on the ocean tide and buy a piece of sky

I'm alright, but I've been living in a movie
Someday I will have to wake from this dream
I'm simplified, in this microcosm of mine
I'm between the lines

I don't mind if I'm acting weird it's the only way to be
I don't get people and they don't get me and I
Feel like I'm alone and way too stubborn and I
I just wanna ride on the ocean tide

I don't mind if I'm acting weird it's the only way to be
I don't get people and they don't get me and I
I don't mind

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
