Real Life

Taking for granted every time Giving up everything to start me breathing There is no name for that resolve There is no name for love that's anything but needing Keep this little thing in mind You're all devotion in your way of thinking What a way to spend your time What a way to give me all you could be keeping But do you really enjoy this? Does it not make you wince sometimes? You deserve everything I was given it Real life Look at this house you've build I've been living in All this time You did what I worry I could never do Sacrificing all your hopes for mine Now I've become so self-involved It's easy to forget what you have left behind Will I ever do the same? The task of giving, never asking anything It doesn't resonate with selfish souls Were you like me or have I grown up cold? But do you really enjoy this? Does it not make you wince sometimes? You deserve everything I was given it Real life Look at this house you've build I've been living in All this time I live freely But I know that you know me And I'll always need mothering Never discover How to live beyond myself Your life is all giving Don't think I'm capable Won't sacrifice anything You deserve everything I was giving it Real life And look at this house you've build I've been living in All this time You deserve everything I was giving it Real life And look at this house you've build I've been living in All this time You deserve everything You deserve everything You deserve everything You deserve everything
