A shadow in the child's eye, before he ever hears a lie   He's looking for something real   Yeah I know   Just stop all the music, the pollution in our lives   We're looking for something real   Yeah I know   Doesn't make a sound as I look inside   Implode as I close my eyes   Try to stay in the lines   Maybe it's a matter of time   But what does it matter - what does is matter      The shadows inside - controlling my life   As confusion blinds my eyes   Facing the signs, I'm losing my mind   Always I'm stranded here   Drowning in pride, wasting my time   As confusion blinds my eyes   Facing the signs, I'm losing my mind   Always I'm stranded here      In a place where the stalkers hide   I try to clear out my mind   I'm looking for something real   Yeah I know   I break for the exit   As I circle in my mind - still looking for something real   Yeah I know - I know      I'm alone - so please - I keep running - I'm running away
