There was a girl I used to know
She had long blonde hair
And an electric soul
It almost wasn't fair
She lit up my mind
Like fireworks in the sky
And took me so high
I felt I could fly
But it all was a dream
You see reality
Is the hardest thing
You could ever meet
I can't find love
'Cause I don't believe
And now I'm falling from the sky
At a thousand feet
And once I hit the ground
I shut myself down
Blocked everyone out
And ignored the sounds
But then I met a guy
He said I had the most brilliant eyes
But then he stole their light
And unlike her he was real this time
He watched me crash and burn
Told me he loved me
And left me cursed
You see reality
Is the hardest thing
You could ever meet
I can't find love
'Cause I don't believe
I'm good enough
And the memories just won't retreat
It's my fault though
I flew too high
And when they let go
I fell from the sky
So I just let everyone down
And put my guards up high
Because reality
Is the hardest thing
You would ever see
And I won't find love
'Cause I can't believe
