Lyrics Real Life - Interpol

Real Life

Is this real life for a change?
Are these concepts still the same?
With my bloody nose, I have fixed to savagery and showbiz
Dreams reliant, cease to tryin'
All these secondary lives are falling into
Unbalanced beam, a step unseen, a state
All these secondary lives are falling into
Scattered dreams, scattered people
Real life on repeat
Sideways figure eights
Giant steps simulate
Everybody knows, we can still commiserate with shadows
Dreams defiant, cease to tryin'
All these secondary lives are falling into
Unbalance beam, a step unseen, a state
All these secondary lives are falling into
Scattered dreams, scattered people
Never descend, never die
Real life on repeat
Sideways, figure eights
Silence, silence
All these secondary lives are falling into
Unbalance beam, a step unseen, a state
All these secondary lives are telling you
Beat the priestess to the beach tonight
Let them see and let them be beside us
Often beating, ocean breezes
Let them see and let them be beside us
Only beating, ocean breezes
Beat the priestess to the beach and the fire
