Yeah, I like this too Travis..but I think it's still a work in progress. Maybe stick to the "theme" a bit more...?? You start off with "it's about her" and finish with "it's about me"..

Just to illustrate what I mean

In the Real World
v
She believed love should be like a children's fantasy
Girl meets boy, live forever in a cottage by the sea.
The kind of world where goodness always prevailed over bad
and prince charming wiped tears away whenever she was sad

Chorus
In the Real World, life's not like a picture book
Peter Pan just don't beat guys like Captain Hook
In the Real World,the good die young, songs are sung
but you won't see the bluebirds comin' out to sing
in the Real World one more broken heart don't mean anythin'

v
She looked like the pain dominating her life
abused by her father blamed for the death of his wife
despite this she tried hard to please him because
deep inside she was twisted and love has a cost

b
She once found a lover and thought paradise
was within her grasp but it came with a price
Lord knows where she's gone now, she's left him behind
One of a million lost souls that are stories of life

Chorus
In the Real World, life's not like a picture book
Peter Pan just don't beat guys like Captain Hook
In the Real World,the good die young songs are sung
but you wont see the bluebirds comin' out to sing
in the Real World one more broken heart don't mean anythin'


If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop
