It’s Real!

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We can't escape We can't push our problems all down the drain We dream until they're gone and then they're here to stay And I could try to run, don't wanna complicate This matter 'cause there's nowhere left to hide There's nowhere left to hide [Verse 2] People in every state The happiness-depression pendulum will stay Swinging back and forth, we cannot concentrate We close our eyes tomorrow, it'll be the same But that's just how we try to disappear We fear, we fear Maybe none of this is real [Chorus] It's real Don't wanna sound dramatic but I need to feel Like I could dance these fears right out the window, dear We're always moving backwards as we say We say, "Why do we live this way?" It's real Don't wanna sound dramatic but I need to feel (Why do we live this way?) Like I could dance these fears right out the window, dear We're always moving backwards as we say We say, "Why do we live this way?" [Verse 3] We can't relate Every time I come around I feel the weight Livin' that picture perfect life, go on and demonstrate You're always on the run, don't wanna complicate This matter 'cause there's no way I could find a place for me To cry away the pain, the doubt, the greed I'm feeling all this weight, I can't believe There's nowhere left to hideout And that's just how I try to disappear I fear, I fear Maybe none of this is real [Chorus] It's real Don't wanna sound dramatic but I need to feel Like I could dance these fears right out the window, dear We're always moving backwards as we say We say, "Why do we live this way?" It's real Don't wanna sound dramatic but I need to feel (Why do we live this way?) Like I could dance these fears right out the window, dear We're always moving backwards as we say We say, "Why do we live this way?" [Bridge] Why do we live this way? Why do we live this way? Why do we live this way? Why do we— Why do we— Why do we— [Chorus] Real, it's real Don't wanna sound dramatic but I need to feel (Why do we live this way?) Like I could dance these fears right out the window, dear We're always moving backwards as we say We say, "Why do we live this way?"
