Something Real

Born into this world
I was thrown into this mess
I didn?t choose it, didn?t want it
But I?m here

And I?m taking it for granted
That I?m alone on this planet
It didn?t have to be like this but it?s clear

That the difference
Between the promises you make and those you keep
Is the difference between me and you and why my love is deep

Give me something real, give me something real
Isn?t that what life is all about?
Give me something real, something I can feel
Then there can be never any doubt

Give me something real, I need something real
Isn?t that what love is all about
Give me something real, something I can feel
Give me something real

I?ve made some mistakes
But I mostly got it right
Growing up in this age can be hard

And I?ve learned, and I?ve learned
Not to trust everything they say
And I?ve leaned just to trust
My own heart

And the difference
Between me and you and why my soul is deep
Is the difference between the promises you make and those you keep

(Chorus)

And the difference
Between what you said to them and said to me
Is the difference between what I said to you and where I?ll be

(Chorus)

Give me something real, something I can feel, give me someone real, give me something real
