Filming Our Favorite Lies

Sometimes wish that it was just like in the movies
Everyone finds true love, but will it be the same
Will my happy ending be worth all of this pain
It's always so romantic on the silver screen

By the time the story ends
It all works out so perfectly
Too bad it's not reality
It's just pretend

I know that happy endings are just make believe
Real life is much too sad
Or maybe they're just not for me
'Cause that's the way it seems to be
From where I'm at

Sometimes wish that it was just like in the movies
Everyone finds true love, but will it be the same
Will my happy ending be worth all of the pain
It's always so romantic on the silver screen

By the time the story ends
It all works out so perfectly
Too bad it's not reality
It's in our heads
