Is This Real
(专辑: In Search Of Solid Ground - 2009)
Time's running out and I
have been betrayed Gotta cast my stone into the
lake (it didn't work, I
didn't feel it sink in) That's all it takes my son then you are safe When the
end comes, everything's okay (we take it back, you take it away) Take my skin, we're diving in It doesn't make a
difference if I
sink or swim Theres a
line drawn thin or so they tell me I'll never know the
difference if we..sink or swim! Is it real, the
choices that we make (is it real) The
smiles that we fake (is it real) I
know it hurts but is it real The
choices that we make The
smiles that we fake for my own sake I
know it hurts but is it... I
can't help feeling like I've been betrayed Shoulda cast that stone into the
lake (stone into the
lake) Chased in the
wrong direction, led astray And I
know you don't believe a
single word you say (I can't believe that you can) Take my skin, we're diving in (we're diving in) It doesn't make a
difference if I
sink or swim Theres a
line drawn thin or so they tell me I'll never know the
difference if we..sink or swim! Is it real, the
choices that we make (is it real) The
smiles that we fake (is it real) I
know it hurts but is it real The
choices that we make (is it real) The
smiles that we fake for my own sake I
know it hurts but is this..real...is this real I
don't want to buy into the
lie Stare up at the
sky but is it real? Show me something real. I
don't want to buy into your lies Stare up at the
sky and say "I surrender myself for this, I'll take the
blame (I'll take the
blame) I
surrender myself for this, I'll take the
blame (oh oh..) For peace or war, for rich or poor For loss, for gain, for everything that I
loved I
see, I
feel, I've become one with words not real to me So I'll stare in silence Forward, backwards Just to realize we all fall..down Is it real, the
choices that we make (is it real) The
smiles that we fake (is it real) Just tell me is this real (is it real) The
choices that we make (is it real) The
smiles that we fake for my own sake I
know it hurts but is this..real...is this real Is it real I
need to know, is this real
