So Real

Written by Bootsauce, from Bootsauce, 1995



Sat up and found the sun in my face,
I missed the morning again
I've slept through another life
Looked out to see the city anew,
I'm going crazy, my friend
I'm lost in the ruins, yeah

You know it shouldn't make any difference
I know I've got my back to the wall
You know it shouldn't make any difference
So real I can reach out and touch it
So real that the light rushes past it
So real you could reach out and touch it

I dreamed I had the world at my feet,
And they were laughing at me
Now, isn't that something
And I thought that I could fix all the things
That're going wrong in this world
Some crazy delusion

You know it shouldn't make any difference
I know I've got my back to the wall
You know it shouldn't make any difference
So real I can reach out and touch it
So real that the light rushes past it
So real you could reach out and touch it
So real I can reach out and grasp it

Real
Real is what you want the world to be (x 2)

Woke up and found the egg on my face
Was just a spot underdone,
Been halfway to heaven
Stood up and shook the blind for some light
And they were laughing at me
Some crazy delusion

You know it shouldn't make any difference
I know I've got my back to the wall
You know it shouldn't make any difference
So real I can reach out and touch it
So real that the light rushes past it
So real you could reach out and touch it
So real I can reach out and grasp it

So real I can reach out and touch it
So real that the light rushes past it
So real you could reach out and touch it
So real I can reach out and grasp it

Hey, yeah
Real enough for me...
