Owl City – Cinematic lyrics
[Intro]
(Go play)

[Verse 1]
Your life is a matinee
In a galaxy far, far away
And your debut is a sold out show, yeah
It’s a blockbuster movie and you play the lead role

And right out at the opening scenes
The whole crowd's on the edge of their seats
Your worse critics are sitting up front
And they're giving you two thumbs way, way up
You'll be in a league of your own
You'll be stealing their hearts taking Oscars home

[Pre-Chorus]
So go get 'em and give it some passion
Quiet on the set
Lights, camera, action!

[Chorus]
With all your heart and soul
Dream big and you can feel the magic
Let the camera roll
Woah, your charm is automatic
Make your cameo
Be yourself
And don’t be so dramatic
Go and steal the show
Woah, 'cause life is cinematic
Go and steal the show
Woah, 'cause life is Cinematic

(Go play)

[Verse 2]
Plot twist, it’s a trilogy
Cause your life is a thriller
We’re dying to see
Your debut is a sold out show, yeah
It's an epic adventure
And you play the hero

And right out at the opening scenes
The whole crowd's on the edge of their seats
Your worse critics are sitting up front
And they're giving you two thumbs way, way up
You'll be in a league of your own
You'll be stealing their hearts taking Oscars home

[Pre-Chorus]
So go get 'em and give it some passion
Quiet on the set
Lights, camera, action!

[Chorus]
With all your heart and soul
Dream big, and you can feel the magic
Let the camera roll
Woah, your charm is automatic
Make your cameo
Be yourself, and don’t be so dramatic
Go and steal the show
Woah, cause life is cinematic

[Bridge]
Get a top hat and a rabbit
With the crowd and make your magic

Turn the lights down low
(and your dreams will come true)
(May the force be with you)
Knock ‘em dead

Go and steal the show
Woah, cause life is cinematic

[Outro]
(Go play)
‘Cause your life is a movie
(Go play)
Follow your dreams, cause your life is a movie
(Go play)
Go get ‘em and give it your all
Follow your dreams, cause life is cinematic
