She says that the world is a broken mess

It's always on her mind

No, I cannot fix it, no, I cannot make it stop

Can we live that real life, real life?"

Can we live that real life, real life?"

Am
Prays on her knees as the towers fall

To a God she does not know

She's begging him to stop the mess
F C G
The Boston bombs blow (Ooh)

She says, "How could I ever believe in something
F C G
That would step aside and watch?"

And I got no words to say 'cause I think I lost my faith

But I thank you for the day when everything will be okay

Oh, hey, "Turn your phone off, only look me in my eyes

Can we live that real life, real life?"
