American Hi-fi - Something Real lyrics

Staring down the boulevard Crescent heights the city lights the way To another wasted day Shiny cars and shooting stars California dreaming in my ear I just wish that you were here I'm dealing with scars Just trying to see who we are Nobody said it would be easy Fighting your way through another day I think I know how you feel Looking for something that matters Keeping it together when it's all been shattered We all want something real Summer's on a holiday Pills to chase the blues away Who knows just how far this story goes So listen to the radio Turn it up so you can sing along Even though the notes are wrong I'm building up walls And trying to break all the falls All your life you're wondering We don't know what's happening Somethings gotta give Falling through the atmosphere See the world in black and white These pictures coming clear How many times I wished that you were here
