Reality Check

[Verse 1]
Please try not to think too much
I tell myself but I won't budge
And now it seems my mind keeps trying to rationalize love
But I'll no longer get on my knees
For the civil war inside of me
And live my life the way I was intended to, be free

[Verse 2]
But is this just too good to be true
My mind speaks from inside of you
I've thought too much about this to be wrong, somebody help
And I'm trapped within my psyche now
I've let it go, I've let it out
And now it's hurting everyone I know this feels like hell

[Chorus]
Now won't you
Take me down a peg or two
Everybody needs a few reality checks
Show me I'm not what I believe
Everybody needs a few reality checks

[Verse 3]
Take me with you, far away
I'm sick and tired of this place
And I need a place to call home free from my analytical brain
And I know I'm smarter than everyone
And I'll think that till my time has come
But deep, deep down I know that I'm a know-it-all at heart

[Chorus]
Now won't you
Take me down a peg or two
Everybody needs a few reality checks
Show me I'm not what I believe
Everybody needs a few reality checks

[Outro]
I was wrong
I was wrong
