I want to live in the desert and bake in the sun
I want to live in the city and kiss everyone
I want to go to bed early, asleep in your spoon
I want to hear a pin drop in a sold-out room
I want a puppy, but I don't want a mess
Want to know where I'm going without GPS
I want a real strawberry straight from the vine
I want a real conversation with my mother sometime
Want to get married, but I don't want kids
Want to believe in partnership
Want to make the hair stand on the back of your neck
And every night feel like make-up sex

Cause it's real life
Living real life
Living real life
Living real life

I don't want wrinkles, but I want real skin
And I want real beauty that comes from within
And I want real money, but I can't play the game
Want to have privacy, want to have fame
Want to take your hand as we drive to the store
Want to blow your mind, make you beg for more
I want real clean drugs
I want to fuck up my rug
I want cancer-free lungs
I want forever young
Want to take a breath and a good look around
To really be here in this moment I found
Cause it passes so quickly, the blink of an eye
I'm crying, you're crying, we're crying, we cry

Cause it's real life
Living real life
Living real life
Living real life
Real life
Real life

I want to see the sunrise on Arizona plains
I want to smell the sagebrush wet from the rain
Want to walk Alameda with the birds in the trees
I want to heal the trauma in my body
Want to write thank you letters, send presents on time
Want to someday enjoy one glass of wine
Want my father to call me and tell me he's proud
Want my wants to come true if I want them out loud

Cause it's real life
Living real life
Living real life
Living real life
Real life
Real life

Believe in real life
I'm feeling real life
I'm bleeding real life
I'm needing real life
Real life
Real life

Surviving real life
Surviving real life
Surviving real life
Surviving real life
Real life
Real life
