I woke up on this side, I thought it was a dream
At first we learn to walk then learn to scream
You can't understand when you're fed from a T.V. screen
And you can't see the things that I can see
But I forget, that you thank God and pray
Somethings just never stay
And we all just slip away
This can't be the real world now
I don't believe it, when I can't see the truth
Welcome to the real world now
The old are carried in only to poison youth
Am I, the only one who thinks it's tragic
cause I know
This could be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
I look for some hope, in every face there's a vacant stare
The shadows come but no one seems to care
The darkness floods, every light that could promise change
the sheep are sound asleep when the blood is stained, but blood is pain
Somewhere I know, that I'm not all alone
with this bated breath I hold, my lungs want to explode
This can't be the real world now
I don't believe it, when I can't see the truth
Welcome to the real world now
The old are carried in only to poison youth
Am I, the only one who thinks it's tragic
cause I know
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
Just as soon as we see
Every flaw and every need
We'll understand
If for the first time
a child to a man says only
pure words that he can
He's too late this man he knows it he said
With all emotion set aside,
in a whisper say good-bye
This can't be the real world now
I don't believe it, when I can't see the truth
Welcome to the real world now
The old are carried in now just to poison youth
Am I, the only one who thinks it's tragic
cause I know
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
This Can't be the real world (x2)
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
The lyrics REAL WORLD of THE ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS is also present in the album When the world comes down (2008)
The All-American Rejects sono un gruppo musicale pop americano formatosi alla fine degli anni '90 a Stillwater, Oklahoma. Il loro primo EP è stato pubblicato indipendentemente nel 2000, seguito da un secondo EP, *Same Girl, New Songs*, nel 2001. Dopo aver fatto tour con l'EP, la band ha firmato con Doghouse Records e il loro album di debutto omonimo è stato rilasciato nel 2002. L'album ha raggiunto la posizione numero 25 nella classifica Billboard americana e ha avuto un discreto successo anche nel Regno Unito, dove si è piazzato al numero 19. Il successo dell'album è dovuto in parte al singolo *Swing Swing*, che ha raggiunto il top ten della classifica US Modern Rock e ha ottenuto una buona diffusione radiofonica. Altri brani rappresentativi includono *Dirty Little Secret* e *Move Along*. Il loro secondo album, *Move Along*, pubblicato nel 2005, ha consolidato il successo del gruppo con la hit omonima che ha raggiunto la posizione numero 1 nella classifica US Modern Rock.
