Lyrics & Translation

[English]

(Wait)

People love the boxes they stick me in

Thinkin' they can slap a pink bow on it to fix everything (uh)

Cuttin' out all the pieces that don't fit right

Isn't it weird that no one else sees how toxic it is? (Uh)

Wasteland, they're all stare-ing

I feel the heat as I'm walkin' right by them

I'm cravin' for some real interaction

Everywhere, clouds of dust blockin' my view

God, it's so hot

So hard to breathe

And I'm tryin' to run

I wanna be free

(Ay, they've got me)

I can move a mountain range, I don't need magic

We're just on a different level, you won't get it

I could change the whole world, start a new planet

But they can't handle it

Reality hurts

Reality hurts

Dirt stuck to my feet, they keep chasin' me

They can't catch up to me, I leave 'em in the dust, like

Oh, I think I've chewed enough, reality is tough

I try to bite but I can't seem to get through it

(Uh) I don't want that

(Uh) I don't need that

(Uh) 'cause I'm with my girls, yeah

I can move a mountain range, I don't need magic

We're just on a different level, you won't get it

I could change the whole world, start a new planet

But they can't handle it

Reality hurts

Reality hurts

We keep rock 'n' rollin' 'cause we're always gonna

Bounce back, bounce back, bounce back, keep it goin'

I'm the antibody, yeah, I'm always gonna

Bounce back, bounce back, bounce back, oh, you know it

I can move a mountain range, I don't need magic

We're just on a different level, you won't get it

I could change the whole world, start a new planet

But they can't handle it

Reality hurts

Reality hurts

(Reality hurts, babe)

(Ay, they've reached me)

I can move a mountain range, I don't need magic

We're just on another plane, you don't understand it

I could make the world change, start a new planet

But they can't stand it

Reality hurts
