And I can't change my life,
it's too late to fix the way its working out,
I guess I'm walking this path,
for a reason unknown to me,
and at the end of it,
at the end of it,
I'll be real.
And I can't change my life,
its too late to fix the way its working out,
I guess I'm in and out of these circles,
filled with fakes,
for a reason unknown to me,
and at the end of it,
at the end of it,
I'll be real.
and I can't change my life
its too late to fix the way its working out,
I guess I'm living all these lies,
I guess I'm feeling all this pain,
I guess I'm all alone,
for a reason unknown to me,
and at the end of it,
at the end of it,
I'll be real.
I guess I walk this path,
to be real.
