THE ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS
"Real World (Demo)"

I woke up on this side, I thought it was a dream
At first we learned to walk then learned to scream
You don't understand, here's the places you can't believe
And you can't see the things that I can see
But I forget, that you thank God and pray
Some things just never stay
And we all just slip away

[Chorus:]
This can't be the real world now
I don't believe it, when I can't see the truth
Welcome to the real world now
And I don't want to believe that it's a place for you and I
I hope you think it's tragic
Because I know
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh

Look out the window at a sky that doesn't care
I look up for the sun, but it's not there (Not there)
The rivers flood and the ground beneath me shakes
Turn your eyes and hope that window doesn't breaks
But still I know that you can't make the change
Some things just never stay
And we all just slip away

[Chorus:]
This can't be the real world now
I don't believe it, and I can see that soon
Welcome to the real world now
You try to wind your watch but we're all running out of time
I hope
I hope you think it's tragic
Because I know
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh

Just as soon as you see (Just as soon as you see)
It's not the way that it should be, you'll understand
(It's not the way that it should be)
Just for the first time
As fake as it seems, we all share in this disease
So what a damn, for the last time

[Chorus:]
This can't be the real world now
I don't believe it, and I can't see the truth
Welcome to the real world now
You try to wind your watch but we're all running out of time
I hope
I hope you think it's tragic
Because I know
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
The old are carried in now just to poison youth
Am I, the only one who thinks it's tragic
Because I know
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
