Something Real Lyrics - American Hi-fi

Staring down the boulevard 

Crescent heights the city lights the way 

To another wasted day 

Shiny cars and shooting stars 

California dreaming in my ear 

I just wish that you were here 

I'm dealing with scars 

Just trying to see who we are 

Nobody said it would be easy 

Fighting your way through another day 

I think I know how you feel 

You're looking for something that matters 

Keeping it together when it's all been shattered 

We all want something real 

Summer's on a holiday 

Pills to chase the blues away 

Who knows just how far this story goes 

So listen to the radio 

Turn it up so you can sing along 

Even though the notes are wrong 

I'm building up walls 

And trying to break all the falls 

Nobody said it would be easy 

Fighting your way through another day 

I think I know how you feel 

You're looking for something that matters 

Keeping it together when it's all been shattered 

We all want something real 

All your life you're wondering 

We don't know what's happening 

Something's gotta give 

Falling through the atmosphere 

See the world in black and white 

The picture's coming clear 

How many times I wished that you were here 

Nobody said it would be easy 

Fighting your way through another day 

I think I know how you feel 

You're looking for something that matters 

Keeping it together when it's all been shattered 

We all want something real 

Nobody said it would be easy 

Fighting your way through another day 

I think I know how you feel 

You're looking for something that matters 

Keeping it together when it's all been shattered 

We all want something real 

We all want something real 

We all want something real
