Is It Real
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Is it real?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Is it real?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Is it real? I wanna go back
Times have all changed and I don't want that
'Cause I feel our lives roll past
Look the wrong way when I'm moving too fast
Is it real? Wind the tape back
Watch the whole reel 'til the picture goes black
Dig your heels, feel the roots crack
Rings in your centre but I wouldn't count that
Rise and fall
In vain, in vain
Time and time
Again, again
Is it real?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Is it real?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Digs your heels, don't wanna go back
Times have all changed and I don't want that
As I feel our lives roll past
Look the wrong way and I'm moving too fast
Then you see me go out the picture
Then you see me go out the door
Then you see me go out the picture
Then you see me go out the door (is it real?)
Then you see me go out the picture
Then you see me go out the door (is it real?)
Then you see me go out the picture
Then you see me go out the door
