Real Life - Bastille

I came for distraction

Then I got swept away

By this new religion

By my digital faith

And all of my friends are here, up to no good

So why would I leave if I could stay here for distraction?

Oh, I forgot why I came, but

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I wish this was real life

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I wish this was real life

Don’t wanna wake up, no

I wanna keep pretending

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I wish this was real, real life

I wish this was real life

Out there I’m a loser

That you might just forget

In here I’m a goddess

And I leave all my regrets

I’m happy here wearing this skin that I made

So why would I want to be awake?

In here I’m a somebody

And they all sing my name

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I wish this was real life

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I wish this was real life

Don’t wanna wake up, no

I wanna keep pretending

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I wish this was real, real life

I wish this was real life

So look at me now

Look at me now, now, now, now, now

Just look at me now

Look at me now, now, now, now, now, now

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I wish this was real life

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I wish this was real life

Don’t wanna wake up, no

I wanna keep pretending

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I wish this was real, real life

I wish this was real, real life
