Real World

I woke up on this side
 I thought it was a dream
 At first we learned to walk
 Then learned to scream
 You can't understand
 When you're fed from a TV screen
 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
 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
 The old are carried in only to poison youth
 Am I (the only one who thinks it's tragic?)
 'Cause I know
 This can't be the real world now
 Oh-no-oh
 Oh-no-oh
 I look for some hope in every face there's a vacant stare
 The shadows come but no one seems to care
 The darkness floods every light that could promised change
 She passed sound asleep when the blood is stain
 But blood is pain
 Somewhere I know that I'm not all alone
 With this bated breath I hold
 My lungs want to explode
 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
 The old are carried in only to poison youth
 Am I (the only one who thinks it's tragic?)
 'Cause 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 we see (as we see)
 Every flaw and every need we'll understand (every flaw and every need)
 And for the first time (time)
 A child to a man says only pure words that he can
 He's too late the man he knows it, he said
 "With all emotions set aside
 In a whisper say goodbye"
