Too Real

(album: Mouth To Mouth - 1997)

Here she comes, the great leveler
King and serfs bow before her
If you feel her eyes on you, run

She'll come and put her arms around you
You lie and say, she hasn't found you
You'll run to her she's there to greet you

Are you lost to us forever
Tied in lust strapped in leather
Is the cost way beyond you
Do you love her more than you love yourself

Is it just too real
Cold clear for you to feel
Is it just too real
Cold clear for you to feel

Am I far in the distance
Am I the cure or a symptom
Should I go when you tell me to

Can you tell I've never loved her
Because my life is for another
Who's up and down, but will take me there

I don't claim to understand her
But hand in hand I am with her
Bright and clear and with a future
You can come and join us if you dare

Is it just too real
Is it just too real
Too cold too clear for you to feel
Is it just too real
Is it just too real
Too cold too clear for you to feel

I sing but you can't speak
I laugh but you can't smile
L love but you lie low
You've got to let her go...

I look then you don't see
I talk then you don't hear
I walk then you will crawl low
You've got to let her go

Is it just too real
Is it just too real
Too cold too clear for you to feel
Is it just too real
Is it just too real
Too cold too clear too real
