What If No One's Watching Lyrics

If my life were a movie, there would be a sunset
And the camera would pan away
But the sky is just a little sister
Tagging along behind the buildings
Trying to imitate their gray

And the little boys are breaking bottles
Against the sidewalk, the big boys, too
The girls are hanging out at the candy store
Pumping quarters into the phone
'Cause they don't wanna go home

And I think, what, what if no one's watching?
What if when we're dead, we are just dead?
I mean what, what if God ain't looking down?
What if he's lookin' up instead?

Oh, if my life were a movie, I would light a cigarette
And the smoke would curl around my face
And everything I do would be interesting
I'd play the good guy in every scene

But I always feel I have to take a stand
And there's always someone on hand
To hate me for standing there
I mean, I always feel I have to open my mouth
And every time I do, I offend someone, somewhere

But what, what if no one's watching?
What if when we're dead, we are just dead?
I mean what, what if there's no time to lose?
What if there's things we gotta do
Things that need to be said?

Hmm, you know I can't apologize for everything I know
I mean you don't have to agree with me
But once you get me going
You better just let me go

I mean we, we have to be able to criticize what we love
Say what we have to say
'Cause if you're not trying to make something better
As far as I can tell, you're just in the way

I mean what, what if no one's watching?
What if when we're dead, we are just dead?
I mean what if it's just us down here?
What if god is just an idea someone put in your head?

I mean what, what if no one's watching?
What if no one's watching?
I mean what, what if no one's watching?
What if no one's watching?

Hmm, if my life were a movie, there would be a sunset
And the camera would pan away
But the sky is just a little sister
Tagging along behind the buildings
Trying to imitate their grey

What if no one's watching, what if no one's watching?
What if no one's watching, what if no one's watching?
