I've been thinking it over
Trying to convince myself
I'd rather be living in a fantasy
Than try to turn you into somebody else

Reality it hurts
State of mood I'm in
And I should not confess
So I'm trying to pretend
Reality it hurts
Reality it hurts

Everytime you try to hold me I go and run for the door
When I find your body lying next to mine
Well, I wanna know what it is I really, really love you for

Reality it hurts
The state of mood I'm in
And I should not confess
So I'm trying to pretend
Reality it hurts
Reality it hurts

I've been searching for an answer
Trying to fall back in love
As I fantasize I come to realize
Everything you are is never really good enough

Reality it hurts
The state of mood I'm in
And I should not confess
So I'm trying to pretend
When you're lying in my bed
You'll be trying to pretend

Reality it hurts
The state of mood I'm in
And I should not confess
When I'm trying to pretend
When you're lying in my bed
You'll be trying to confess
When you're lying in my bed
Reality it hurts
