What If We Were Real

Well Im tired of saying everything
I feel like Im supposed to say

Im tired of smiling all the time
I wanna throw the mask away

Sometimes you just have a bad day
Sometimes you just wanna scream
Tell me Im not the only one
Tell me that you feel just like me

We keep tryin to make it look so nice
And we keep hidin whats goin on inside
But what if I share my brokenness
What if you share how you feel
And what if we werent afraid of this crazy mess
What if we were real

What if we were real

Im over hidin my tears
I think Im gonna let em go
Im over actin so strong
When I aint even in control
We make it so complicated
But why does it have to be
Why cant we open our hearts and let everybody see
We keep tryin to make it look so nice
And we keep hidin whats goin on inside

But what if I share my brokenness

What if you share how you feel
And what if we werent afraid of this crazy mess
What if we were real
Wed think a little less of ourselves
Wed care about somebody else
Cause wed know just how they feel

Maybe we could let someone love us
Maybe wed be a little more like Jesus
Why cant we learn to be real

We keep tryin to make it look so nice
And we keep hidin whats goin on inside

But what if I share my brokenness
What if you share how you feel
Andwhat if we werent afraid of this crazy mess
What if we were real

Youve got to be real
Youve got to be real
Youve got to be real
Youve got to
Youve got to
