Lyrics
Real World
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.
How many lifetimes, how many beginnings
How many lovers, how many threats
How many religions to keep us all guessing
Give me a reason. Why?
Hell is a reason. Why?
The real world
You've got to fight to see it through
The real world
It's like the cages in the zoo
The real world
Is there a lifelong there to be?
The real world, the real world
Too many people try to sell you their cages
Killing the fox till the jailer arrives
If living in zoos
Is your idea of outrageous
Don't pick any animal
I'll be the wild one
The real world
You've got to fight to see it through
The real world
It's likes the cages in the zoo
The real world can leave you
Hanging by a thread
The real world, the real world
