Something Real Songtext
von Jorn

There was a shadow over heaven
On the day that I was born
They tried to bless me with holy water
But I was baptized in a storm
Oh, yeah!

I was raised with a crossbow
Aiming for something real
I sent out the arrow
From behind my defense shield

Eternal dreamer
So full of life
A faithful believer
Soon I will arise

They tried to put me down
And it struck me hard
Used to turn the other cheek
′Til they pushed me too far


Now I'm right on target
And my thoughts are clearer
Closer to balance
As the end draws nearer
Oh, yeah!

I give you everything just for a while
You got the best of me, this is my time
The seed I′ve been given (Hallelujah)
To grow my ambitions high
All you people of the western land
Is it so hard to smile and lend a helping hand?
Open your hearts
It can be simple if you just show what you feel
Go look for something real
Hey, hey

You can call me a peace warrior
A dark soul of light
I sing for the future
And the melody's my guide

Sailing the warm waters
Of this endless lullaby
My ship is leaking
Can't stop it if I try
Ooh!


They tried to put me down
And it struck me hard
I used to turn the other cheek
′Til they pushed me too far

Now I′m right on target
And my thoughts are clearer
Closer to harmony
As my love feels nearer

I give you everything just for a while
You got the best of me, this is my time
The seed I've been given (Oh, hallelujah)
To grow my ambitions high
All you people of the western land
Is it so hard to smile and lend a helping hand?
Open your hearts
It can be simple if you just know what you feel
Go look for something real

Oh, yeah, yeah
