Real World

Here we go again
You weigh me down with your newest pain
I guess it’s been this way for years
You pin your hopes on me, I disappear
I’m barely holding on
Don’t know why you think that I’m so strong?
Keep pouring out your heart to me
Keep pouring out your heart until I’m gone
You can’t live life like this
I’ve got nothing more to give
And all you wanna do is…
Preach, push the weight of your world down on me
Drag me down til I can’t even breathe
Till I can’t go on
So keep pouring out your heart to me
Keep pouring out your heart until I’m gone
When we’ve only got 10 minutes alone
You only want to talk misery to me
We see life different ways, yeah
Same book different pages
Can’t keep holding you up when you only bring me down
You said it’s because of me
Your words cut deep, they’re troubling
You cried, you wept, gave up and screamed
I heard about it in the songs you wrote
You couldn’t say a thing to me, I know
You never opened up I had to find
A piece of you in notes and thoughts and rhymes
Just because you don’t feel love, don’t live life in the real world
Doesn’t make it right to crucify those of us who cared enough to try
Preach, push the weight of your world down on me
