Real World

(album: Land Of The Free II - 2007)

Here I sit again
And think about the world we know
The same old thing
Where do we come from and where do we go?

Sometimes I worry just too much
Sometimes I just don't care
And if you're with me on this point
Put your hands high in the air
Let me hear you say, "Yeah!"

Sometimes I'm happy as can be
And sometimes feel so low
And what is good and what is bad
I sometimes just don't know

The world is the most crazy place
That we could have been
It seems the meaning of our life
Is going down in sin

So let me live and let me be
Your eyes are blind
But I can see

God is an illusion and there ain't no paradise
And there is no underworld below
Out there is no heaven and there ain't no Antichrist
Welcome to the real world and the show

So let me take you down, my dear
To places you don't know
A land that you have not been to
And normally don't go

I have all your pleasure toys
The fortune and the fame
So when you come with me, my friend
You'll never be the same

So, just say, "Yeah," and come with me
Don't be so blind; it's time to see

God is an illusion and there ain't no paradise
And there is no underworld below
Out there is no heaven and there ain't no Antichrist
Welcome to the real world and the show

Don't be afraid now of the faces in the night
And let your body take control
We're going down into the beam of the neon lights
And I will purify your soul

Standing on a razor's edge
Lost in space and time
All around, the silence falls
Prepared to draw the line

A shot, a cry, a flash of light
A bullet hits the wall
Not yet prepared, the fight for life
Is not yet lost at all

So, come with me and let me be
The one to lead you home
Like diamonds, we'll be shining bright
Before we turn to stone

God is an illusion and there ain't no paradise
And there is no underworld below
Out there is no heaven and there ain't no Antichrist
Welcome to the real world and the show

Welcome to the show
This is the real world
