Only Real When Shared Songtext
von Caiola

You said you′re gonna let go
But I know what you want
And I came here to tell you
You're gonna get lonely
But I know your mind′s made up
There's no use in all of this

You wrote all your books about the wildlife and vegetation
You promised me you can tell now what might kill you
And what might sustain you
So where do I fit in?
And how long is this plan?
To be living like a runaway


Well you crossed the border
Hours after summer's birth
Hitched a ride from a man with more dogs
Than teeth in his mouth
He gifted you his buck knife
And I swear with tongue in cheek
But your nose stayed pointed to the ground
And I got on your brown boots
That your grandfather gave you
And told you that it warmed in the war

And all I have is this letter
And the ashes of the money you earned
Before you walked up out the door

So tell me what happens
When the babbling brook runs dry
And mother nature shrugs her shoulders
And tell me are you happy
Or is it only real when shared?
Is it only real when shared?

See honey I miss you
And the world does too
Now there′s no saving you
Now there′s no saving you
And honey I loved you
And the world did too
Your pride just swallowed you
Pride just swallowed you whole
