Background Actor

Lately, I've been feeling like a background actor in my own show
Could have been killed off in a re-write in the first episode
Then I met you drinking whiskey at a party at a friend's house downtown
You told me you hate people and the DJ's playing Pitbull too loud
I was living life through a stranger's eyes but when I met you baby
It just felt right
When you said my name
Felt my whole world change
Came alive
And for the first time
I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life
My own life

Felt you fall asleep under the moonlight in the passenger side
Windows down doing 80 on the highway
Playing Hellogoodbye
Driving home, my spirit in the backseat
Till you open your eyes
You make my mind stable with a whisper
When you tell me you're mine

I've been living life through a stranger's eyes but when I met you baby
It just felt right
When you say my name
Feel my whole world change
Come alive
And for the first time
I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life
My own life
I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life
My own life

I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life through my own eyes
I could see my own life
My own life
