For Real

[Verse 1]

Some nights I thirst for real blood, for real knives, for real cries

And then the flash of steel from real guns in real life really fills my mind

I really miss what really did exist when I held your throat so tight

And I miss the bus as it swerved from us almost came crashing to its side

[Verse 2]

Some nights the blood from real cuts feels real nice when it's really mine

Feels real nice when it's really mine

And if you want it to be real come over for one night and we can really-really climb

'Cause blue bridge lights might really burn most bright while we watch that dark lake rise

And if you really want to see what really matters most to me just take a real short drive

[Verse 3]

It’s just a drive into the dark stretch, long stretch of night, really stretch this shaking mind

And this room, unlit, unheated and the ceiling striped, and the dark black blinds, I want to know this time

If you're really finally mine I need to know that you're not lying and so I want to see you tried

And I don't want to hear you say "It shouldn't really be this way", because I like this way just fine

[Chorus]

'Cause there's nothing quite like the blinding light that curtains cast aside

And no attempt is made to explain a way things that really, really, really, really, really are behind

[Post-Chorus]

You can't hide, you can't hide, you can't hide

You can't hide, you can't hide, you can't hide

I'll do it all
