Lyrics
Real Reality
Words and Music - Linda S Cullum
When life is overwhelming with its crazy ups and downs
And its hard to get the muscles to lift a smile up from a frown
With troubles ever mounting in a spinning go round
And the only peace there is is in a daydream lying down
Take a step outside and have a listen
Nature's there to help when something's missing
There's message in every breeze
and the songs the birds sing
This is the real reality
This is the real reality
When the mind starts up its chatter with its incessant thinking
making it hard to be here now especially when drinking
And The days seem kind of empty with the sun forever sinking
The nights lasting too long with eyes that won't stop blinking
Take a step outside and have a listen
Nature's there to help when something's missing
There's message in every breeze
and the songs the birds sing
This is the real reality
This is the real reality
When questions get their answers but the answers become questions
And the more that is discovered brings on more need for inventions
The politics get heated and there is global tension
And money ends up being the perfect intervention
Take a step outside and have a listen
Nature's there to help when something's missing
There's message in every breeze
and the songs the birds sing
This is the real reality
This is the real reality
This is the real reality
