After Midnight Project - The Real Thing Lyrics

These pills are the medicine
That we use to hide behind when we're awake
Money is everything
We blanket ourselves under the greed

Fancy cars, elastic smiles, what a show
I better wrap my heart in cellophane, come on

This is not the real thing, this is not real
You fake, you take, you break everything around
You still conceal, this is not the real thing
This is not the real thing

I delve for absolution
But my thoughts get distracted by desire
Yeah, it's all about who you know
It's all about being the biggest star

The sugar keeps us sweet for an hour at a time
All aboard the bullet train

This is not the real thing, this is not real
You fake, you take, you break everything around
You still conceal, this is not the real thing
This is not

I want it all, I want it now
Pick me up from the ground just to throw me down
I'm scared of you who throws opinions
Each and every way

You're not real, you're not real
This is not real, you're not real

You fake, you take, you break everything around
You still conceal, this is not real

You fake, you take, you break everything around
You still conceal, this is not the real thing
This is not the real thing

This is not the real thing
The real thing, the real thing
The real thing, the real thing
The real thing, the real thing
The real thing
