Lyrics The Real Thing - Deer Tick

I guess I've settled for half of what I need
You burned through me like wildfire
And there ain't nothing new to see
I've given half my life away wondering which direction's home
With a jagged piece of you somewhere
Stuck deep into my soul

You know how it feels
Can't get no relief
This couldn't be real
But it feels like the real thing

I guess I always thought that I'd have my second chances
The days are now so precious
The timeline keeps advancing
Just behind the door, I thought, were the answers to my questions
All I wanted was a clean break
But ended up here in a mess

You know how it feels
To be brought to your knees
This couldn't be real
But the heartache, it feels like the real thing
The real thing

Always searching
Never finding
Always somewhere else
I think

You know how it feels
This couldn't be real
But it feels like the real thing

You know how it feels
Can't get no relief
This couldn't be real
But it feels like the real thing
The real thing

You know how it feels
To be brought to your knees
This couldn't be real
But the heartache, it feels like the real thing
The real thing
