Guided by Voices
Nothing Gets You Real
Nothing gets you real
Searching in your heart
Silence lets you feel
No one gets this part
Nothing gets you real

A scene is dying out
A new one taking shape
Very closely now
Nothing gets you real
Nothing takes

Something is revealed
Slashing at your arm
Something you can feel
Sounding the alarm

Nothing gets you real

With the thoughts I'm thinking
With the clothes I wear
It's a costume and I still walk upright
Tongue tied, uptight

But nothing gets you real
Nothing gets you real
Drumming in your hard hat
Stoned

Nothing gets you real
Searching in your heart
Sorrow let's you feel
No one gets this part
Nothing gets you real
