The Extra Lyrics - Placebo

I try every day 

To think of something deep to say 

Cos I would like to find the words 

That deserve to be heard 

Sounds like words are out of style 

Silence beckons down the murder mile 

I keep on talking to the hand 

In a language I don't understand 

If I am an extra in the film of my own life 

Then who the hell is the director? 

If I am an extra in the film of my own life 

Will someone please turn off the camera? 

And show me how to live, show me how to live 

Show me how to live, show me how to live 

Show me how to live, show me how to live

Show me how to live, show me how to live 

Show me how to live, show me how to live 

Show me how to live, show me how to live 

I try every night 

Not to argue, not to fuss and fight 

But there's a riot in my head 

Streets are bleeding and democracy is dead 

Let's fight until the end of days 

Let's destroy and let's devastate 

We keep on talking to the hand 

In a language we don't understand 

If I am an extra in the film of my own life 

Then who the hell is the director? 

If I am an extra in the film of my own life 

Will someone please turn off the camera? 

And show me how to live, show me how to live 

Show me how to live, show me how to live 

Show me how to live, show me how to live

Show me how to live, show me how to live 

(I am an extra in the film of my own life) 

Show me how to live, show me how to live 

Show me how to live, show me how to live 

Show me how to live, show me how to live 

(I am an extra in the film of my own life) 

Show me how to live, show me how to live 

Show me how to live, show me how to live 

I try every day
