Something Real (How To Build A Better Boy)

I Thought I knew what I wanted
‘Til I got it
Turned around now the pressure’s on
In the moment

I was chasing a fairytale
Until I caught it
Took a leap of faith
Now I’m back
Where I started out

This perfect life
Somehow doesn’t really feel right
I learned tonight
That I

I’d trade it all
For something real
Something that’s raw
Something that I, I, I can feel
Flaws and all
Now here’s the deal
I don’t want nothing
‘Less it’s something real

Somethin real

I used to get so caught up
Findin’ all the answers
Always liked to play it smart
Never taking chances

Had to see for myself
To believe in magic
Now I know inside my heart
I already had it all

This perfect life
Is an un-perfect puzzle sometimes
I learned tonight
That I

I’d trade it all
For something real
Something that’s raw
Something that I, I, I can feel
Flaws and all
Now here’s the deal
I don’t want nothing
‘Less it’s something real

All along
I was posin’ for the cameras
Focused on a dream world
Driven by the sand man
Now I’m awake
And life is so much better
Let’s go crazy
All of us together

Something real

I’d trade it all
For something real
Something that’s raw
Something that I, I, I can feel
Flaws and all
Now here’s the deal
I don’t want nothing
‘Less it’s something real
