So Real - Bloc Party

Heartbreak the first, comes to me in bursts

You danced with him whilst I could see you

Although it hurts, tears are not enough

To dissolve all the pain I’m feeling

Must not much have mattered, must I?

Moving forwards

Did not take long to pass me by

Moving onwards

What am I supposed to do

When the only good thing about me was you?

What I am supposed to feel?

As you kept the only part of me that was real

So real

I’ll bet you’ll claim to him I was insane

Too much like a girl, I bored you

Release a dove, let grace into your world

Be still your wicked tongue, I loved you

Once before our cracks did show

I know I pleased you

But now my baby’s got new slang

And a taste for strangers

What am I supposed to do

When the only good thing about me was you?

What I am supposed to feel?

As you kept the only part of me that was real

So real

So real

It’s got to be real

It’s got to be real, oh
