Reality Lyrics

David Bowie

Tragic youth was looking young and sexy The tragic youth was wearing tattered black jeans Bearing arms and flaunting all her mischief The tragic youth was going down on me
And I swear Yes, I swear
I built a wall of sound to separate us And hid among the junk of wretched highs I sped from Planet X to Planet Alpha Struggling for reality
Hey, now my sight is failing in this twilight Now my death is more than just a sad song
And I swear Yes, I swear
I still don't remember how this happened I still don't get the wherefores and the whys I look for sense but I get next to nothing Hey boy, welcome to reality
I've been right and I've been wrong Now I'm back where I started from Never looked over reality's shoulder
