lyrics

Better watch what you do,
Watch what you say.
Hide the real you for another day.
Living terrified, you never will be free.
Trapped between who you are and who you're supposed to be.

But the world don't care how you feel.
got you chasin every little bit of happiness you can steal.
It's got you wondering,
What is real?
What is real?
What is real,
Anyway?

Everybody's going on with their little lives,
Looking for some roadmap to survival.
Gathering the little things
Up in piles so they can't see
That the wind will blow it all down eventually.

And ain't nobody gonna catch you when you fall.
So you surrounded every little bit of happiness behind a wall.
No wonder you're crying,

What is real?
What is real?
What is real anyway?

What is real?
What is real?
What is real anyway?
What is real anyway?

Seems everybody got the answer,
They can tell you what it's all about.
So you follow any shiny plastic prophet that say they got it figured out.
But you can't escape the feeling
You missed a rung somehow, oh yeah.
Always thought you'd see your
Name in lights
By now.

You can work your whole life to build a legacy,
Only to be squandered by those
Who disagree…
With what you took for,

What is real
What is real
What is real anyway?

What is real?
What is real?
What is real anyway?
What is real anyway?

...I can hear the clock ticking...

What is real anyway?
What is real anyway?
What is real anyway?
What is real anyway?
