Real Thing

[Verse 1] Louder than the rest You push your way through the crowd You want your piece of the world And you need the girl [Pre-Chorus 1] The story's still untold How will the hero unfold? Dreams you can fly It isn't real [Chorus] You better check yourself and back up, baby We're locking the doors I've seen the play before, but hold up You started the war Who told you that the feelings are laid out For you to decide? You can't have what you can't have, that's right Cold to survive [Verse 2] The party unwinds The tipsy nod to the door You're misreading the signs Crushing cups on the floor [Pre-Chorus 2] You follow four steps behind You think what's hers is mine Dreams you can fly It isn't real [Chorus] You better check yourself and back up, baby We're locking the doors I've seen the play before, but hold up You started the war Who told you that the feelings are laid out For you to decide? You can't have what you can't have, that's right Cold to survive [Chorus] You better check yourself and back up, baby We're locking the doors I've seen the play before, but hold up You started the war Who told you that the feelings are laid out For you to decide? You can't have what you can't have, that's right Cold to survive [Outro] Oh, it's not yours It's never yours
