The Projectionist

Dont move, Dont speak
Dont blink, just leave it up to me
I got a mind and its like a laser beam light
Dont cry or complain
Its no use, 'cause its all the same
Won't matter once i got you in my sight.

You were living your life
When I came along
Never wondered if
It was right or wrong
You had a nice smile and a pretty face
I unlatched my case
I flicked the switch
You heard a word
Surprised by what had just occured
You thought to run
But something made you stay.

Im The Projectionist
I lay the scene
Shine my beam on your movie screen
I got some months or years to kill
Just hold still
You're gonna ruin the film
Im a perfectionist
If i get it right
I'll wrap you up in a dream tonight
And the dream will play
As long as you can stay.

Whats that you say?
Hush now, dont matter anyway
Its rude to argue while the movie plays
You moved your lips but i couldn't hear
With the soundtrack blaring in my ears
Im Sorry if I dont know what you say
If you dont move until the very end
Ill want to play the film again
If I do it'll be hard to break away.

Im The Projectionist
I lay the scene
Shine my beam on your movie screen
I got some months or years to kill
Just hold still
You're gonna ruin the film
Im a perfectionist
If i get it right
I'll wrap you up in a dream tonight
And the dream will play
As long as you can stay.

Would it kill you to play along?
Just sit there like you belong
Would it kill you to be part of my personal fantasy?
Would it kill you to lie?!
Just sit there and smile just like a blushing bride
It would make you interesting
Probably more than you really are.

Im The Projectionist
I lay the scene
Shine my beam on your movie screen
I got some months or years to kill
Just hold still
You're gonna ruin the film
Im a perfectionist
If i get it right
I'll wrap you up in a dream tonight
And the dream will play
As long as you can stay.
