Lyrics The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart – The Real World

Come to my bedroom, come to my tomb
Come as you were back before when you came so soon
Don’t bring me no papers, don’t tell me what’s news
Hide away from their history, hide away from their truth

We’re not living in the real world
Where the shameless become famous
And the train wrecks entertain us
We’re not living in the real world
Where you work everyday and you die everyday
And you work everyday and you die anyway

All the city boys sing about their sad dick city
All the pretty girls swear, they don’t mean to be pretty
I don’t care about them, I only care about you
We’re going to slip out of time, slip out of view

We’re not living in the real world
Where the shameless become famous
And the train wrecks entertain us
We’re not living in the real world
Where you work everyday and you die everyday
And you work everyday and you die anyway

Say goodbye to the real world
Come into mine, come into mine
Say goodbye to the real world
Come into mine, come into mine
What’s so cool ’bout the real world?
Leave it behind, leave it behind
Say goodbye to the real world
And say you’ll be, say you’ll be
Say you’ll be, say you’ll be mine

Say you’ll be mine

We’re not living in the real world
We’re not living in the real world
