Intro x2 verse 1 She says that the world is a broken mess It's always on her mind She cries at the news when the shots ring out Every single time Pre-Chorus N.C. No, I cannot fix it, no, I cannot make it stop So I said, "Turn your phone off, only look me in my eyes Can we live that real life, real life?" Oh, hey, "Turn your phone off, only look me in my eyes Can we live that real life, real life?" verse 2 Prays on her knees as the towers fall To a God she does not know She's begging him to stop the mess The Boston bombs blow (Ooh) She says, "How could I ever believe in something That would step aside and watch?" And I got no words to say 'cause I think I lost my faith But I thank you for the day when everything will be okay Pre-Chorus N.C. But no, I cannot fix it, and I cannot make it stop So I said, "Turn your phone off, only look me in my eyes Can we live that real life, real life?" Oh, hey, "Turn your phone off, only look me in my eyes Can we live that real life, real life?" Bridge I wish I had the answers Something you could hold too Only thing that's real to me is You Instrumental x2 So I said, "Turn your phone off, only look me in my eyes Can we live that real life, real life?" Oh, hey, "Turn your phone off, only look me in my eyes Can we live that real life, real life?" Outro Oh, hey (Real life, hey) Real life, real life Oh, hey Real life, real life Oh, hey
