What Is Real?

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?
