Real

When did we lose ourselves in society.
In the normal and usual 
Losing our confidence like a paper boat in a flood
This and that, it goes like this
Everyone does it
A robot thinking like a human
Try to fake it, swirling  round and round
Thinking the world spins around you
Time again
Can't  wait fir the next lie

But darling sunshine it doesn't need to be this way
We can flourish in the rain
We different in the eyes of normal
We could feel the earth beneath us
And yet have stars in our souls 

If you could only open those eyes
Wake up!Wake up!
Stop sleeping with eyes open

And be real babe
