Everything That's Real

you walk in circles

and you point to pretty things

and you take no notice of this

if you just understood

took time to question everything

you might see how much you miss

chorus

everything that's real

takes some time to know

you can't just take a glance

the story has to unfold

and every time you do

look the other way

you might be walkin' backwards

you might be leading yourself astray

no one will stop you, no

this world is built for ignorance

you have to learn to break free

this path is well worn down

many have come before you now

to be alive is to see

oh you've got enough on your plate

wearin' you down

oh you've got your priorities straight

and no one can push you around

so i will keep my peace

i won't make you my enemy

but i will not hang around

i've got all that i need

i'm not afraid to believe

i will make my way somehow

chorus

you walk in circles

and you point to pretty things

and you take no notice of this

if you just understood

took time to question everything

you might see how much you miss
