New Realization (Acoustic)

By Sublime

On Everything Under the Sun

[Verse 1]

The time has come to reach a new realization 'tween me and you

Time to clear the rumors, sensations and things that just are not true

Well, I thought I heard you behind me

With a knife poised for my back

It's quite clear that I'm back in the swing of living

Although I might not be on the right track

Thought I might drown but it's hard to keep a good man down

Town's where I'll find you, through some ill-gotten hand

Although I never listen, girl, I damn well understand

And you think I'm so damn feeble

I can't see through your lies, you're just a crock of shit

With a pretty smile and I refuse to compromise

You're giving me such a heavy, heavy, heavy load


[Verse 2]

You may hold some vision of truth, if truth can be found in a lie

Maybe some grain of inspiration for a song that's deep inside

Oh, tears running down your face

Screaming to look you in the eye

Well, I'm looking straight at your twisted face

And it's enough to make me cry

Oh, passions, they're for those who want to pay the price of loving you

In more ways than one

Wrapped around your finger but I think my time has come

But I never can be too sure

'Cause I like to have a little fun

Oh, what fun it would be to blow my mind and fall into the sun

A mind is a precious thing to taste
