Really Live
You've done as you've been told, worked so hard to please.
Tried to fit within the mould and buy the things you think you need
And the ideas that you relied on, you found them all to be empty
Like when you ran from home, the treasure wasn't like you thought it would be.
You're running, you're running, you're running but not really free and
You're gasping, you're gasping you're gasping but not really breathing
Can't you see that you can really live (why wont you take it)
And that you've got so much more to give (so don't you fake it)
Coz there are walls and they are starting to cave in
And there's no way that you can get through without him.
Can't you see that you can really live?
Wooah oh
And you've heard it all before, you'll end up in the same old places,
bruised and insecure, never never hide your face again
cos there's someone you can rely on. You just don't have to be empty
and a promise of much more is something there for the taking.
You're running, you're running, you're running but not really free and
you're gasping, you're gasping you're gasping but not really breathing.
Can't you see that you can really live? (why wont you take it)
And that you've got so much more to give (so don't you fake it)
Cos there are walls and they are starting to cave in
and there's no way that you can get through without him.
Can't you see that you can really live?
Wooah oh oh
