Real World

take me now, take me far away from here
it’s an ugly place, it’s beautiful and strange
and i can’t trust the faces, and i can’t trust the smiles
it’s everything they’d said it’d be
but nothing like they promised me

and every day will leave me tired
the real world is full of liars
isn’t it strange

take me now
make it far away
it’s an empty place
it’s lonely and it’s strange
and i can’t seem to function
the way it seems i should
where you conceal what you mean
with all that’s nasty inbetween

and every day my heart’s on fire
the real world it’s full of liars
isn’t it strange

so tell me why i’m even sitting here
watching as the world falls down, down, down
take a deep breath and i’ll disappear
i’ll be everywhere and anywhere but here

take me now, make it far away
it’s an ugly place, it’s too beautiful
isn’t it strange

and i won’t let you into my world
cause if i was the god of the world i’d tear you asunder and trample you under
like you do to everyone else
and don’t tell me life isn’t fair
cause why would we even bother
just tell me … what would you do
to fight for what you think is true

tell me why i’m even sitting here
watching as the world falls down, down, down
take a deap breath and i’ll disappear
i’ll be everywhere and anywhere but here

take me now, make it far away
it’s an ugly place,
it’s beautiful and strange
