Cinematic by Cool Hand Luke

The other night I had a dream
It unfolded to the silver screen
A tragic fire, some tears were shed
I woke to find our hero dead
And wondered, "What if this was me?"

If my life was cinematic
With a soundtrack so dramatic
You'd be the hero and You would save me
And it would have the sweetest ending

I want to live in such a way
That when I'm gone my friends would say
That if my life was turned to Him
I'd be standing on a mountain shouting victory in the end
But in my heart I know it's only true
If I'm supporting actor and the Oscar goes to You

If my life was cinematic
With a soundtrack so dramatic
You'd be the hero and You would save me
And it would have the sweetest ending

I don't want to let You down
I want to make You proud
If anyone is watching me
I want to make it count for something

What if it ended here?
What if the credits rolled now?
What would the critics say?
Would it be the biggest let down?

If my life was cinematic
With a soundtrack so dramatic
You'd be the hero and You would save me
And it would have the sweetest ending

I want to make You proud

The Fires Of Life is probably the best overall Christian CD I've ever heard. Very haunting, melodic, piano-driven melodies. You should definitely pick it up, especially if you like Coldplay type music.

Yeah, I really like them - well at least, this CD. I haven't heard their other one.
