Real Life (feat. America UK)

I used to play my songs
All by myself in a lonely room
I used to write my words
For no one else in the world but you
But now I'm on my own
Not quite sure who to direct them to
So I keep playing on
Hoping one of us figures out the truth
'Cause it's a real life
It's a real life
It's a real life
Like it never was before
Like it never was before. No

Well there's a fine, fine line
Between reinvention and apocalypse
I haven't had the time
To figure out which one of them this is
So on and up I go
Putting the pieces of my head in place
And I may never know
What is the image of my future face
'Cause it's a real life
It's a real life
It's a real life
Like it never was before
Like it never was before

I look to all manner of stuff and things - keep my
Mind from grinding and make my heart sing. It's the
One hand complying with the watchful eye, and then there's
One hand defying reaching for the sky

If one and one make two
Does that mean now I'm only half of a whole?
Why am I asking you
Who believes the universe is dark and cold?
Yeah I've been on my own
Writing words without any ears to know
But I still play my songs
Hoping one of us finds the better way to go
'Cause it's a real life
It's a real life
It's a real life
Like it never was before
Yeah it's a real life
It's a real life
It's a real life
Like it never was before
Like it never was before
It's a real life
