Lyrics:Don't breathe too deep
Don't think all day
Dive into work
Drive the other
way
That drip of hurt
That pint of shame
Goes away
Just play the
game
You're living in America
At the end of the millennium
You're living in
America
Leave your conscience at the tone
And when you're living in America
At the
end of the millennium
You're what you own

(Lights up on
ROGER.)

ROGER
The filmmaker cannot see

MARK
And the songwriter
cannot hear

ROGER
Yet I see Mimi everywhere

MARK
Angel's voice is in
my ear

ROGER
Just tighten those shoulders

MARK
Just clench your jaw
till you frown

ROGER
Just don't let go

BOTH
Or you may
drown

You're living in America
At the end of the millennium
You're living in
America
Where it's like the Twilight Zone
And when you're living in America
At the
end of the millennium
You're what you own
So I own not a notion
I escape and ape
content
I don't own emotion -- I rent

MARK
What was it about that
night

ROGER
What was it about that night

BOTH
Connection -- in an
isolating age

MARK
For once the shadows gave way to light

ROGER
For
once the shadows gave way to light

BOTH
For once I didn't disengage

(MARK
goes to the pay phone and dials.)

MARK
Angel -- I hear you -- I hear it
I see
it -- I see it
My film!

ROGER
Mimi I see you -- I see it
I hear it -- I
hear it
My song!

MARK (on the phone)
Alexi--Mark
Call me a
hypocrite
I need to finish my own film
I quit!

ROGER
One
song--glory
Mimi
Your eyes...

BOTH
Dying in America
At the end of the
millennium
We're dying in America
To come into our own
And when you're dying in
America
At the end of the millennium
You're not alone
I'm not alone
I'm not
alone

(Blackout
