She's strutting down the street With a diamond necklace, the size of a dime And it looks real nice when it shines It lights up the world around her But it's only in her mind He's speeding up the road in his red FerrariGoes so fast, always in a hurry What's the point if ya get dead in the scurry You'll be leaving it all behind What a shame it is(Doesn't' have to be that way) So lame it is(Gonna have to pay to play) A game like this(That's the way it is) Unless you know What's real? Is the beauty inside your soul What's real? Is that everyone's gonna get old What's real? Is the time that you take to check in Not the sale of material things, they fade And all you're left with is how ya feel And that's what's real All you're left with is how ya feel She gotta go gotta fly, doesn't stop to kiss her kid Be good is all she said As she's grabbing her keys and escaping her life She said she'd be home soon but she lied And her kid tells her friends at school That her mom is really cool Smiles for the camera Gets her face in all the magazines It's a superficial beauty scene And they keep in touch(But she's such a lonely girl) But it don't mean much(Livin' in a lonely world) And I heard her say(Tryin' to be brave) She can't help wondering What's real? Is the beauty inside your soul What's real? Is that everyone's gonna get old What's real? Is the time that you take to check in Not the sale of material things, they fade And all you're left with is how ya feel And that's what's real All you're left with is how ya feel Love each other while you still got time Tell your mother she's been on your mind Kiss your brother just 'cuz he looks fine Wear the red dress, love at first sight Put the top down, feel the sunshine What's real? Is the beauty inside your soul What's real? Is that everyone's gonna get old What's real?
