Life of an Extra

Feet hanging over the edge
Watching as movie scenes unfolding frames
Is it all in my head or is everyone three steps ahead?
From the nodding I'm so sick of asking

Why is it them and not me?
Feels like the main part of a story I'll never be
Am I destined to see the life of an extra just weaving through another's romanticised life?
Would that be justified?

Everyone seems to be dancing in pairs (uuh)
And floating around with the hot silly air (uuh)
Unfolding fairytales every night (uuh)
But for now I'll sit back and watch these moments take play (uuh)

Floats on the rivers, I shine over wine (uuh)
With laughter and jokes, and hand holding in smiles (uuh)
Maybe one day I will know what that's like (uuh)
To be the main part of the romanticised life
Uuh-uuh, uuh-uuh
Uuh-uuh, uuh-uuh

How can he rumour the view?
Seeing the sights all alone without someone to share my thoughts to
Seems like I'll just have to make to
Promenading alone, seeing stars in their eyes

It's always them and not me (uuh)
Feels like a main character's someone I'll never be
Am I destined to see the life of an extra just weaving through another's romanticised life
Would that be justified? (Uuh-uuh)

Everyone seems to be dancing in pairs (uuh)
And floating around with the hot silly air (uuh)
Unfolding fairytales every night (uuh)
But for now I'll sit back and watch these moments take play (uuh)

Floats on the rivers, I shine over wine (uuh)
With laughter and jokes, and hand holding in smiles (uuh)
Someday I just want to know what that's like (uuh)
To be the main part of the romanticised life
