The Real Thing 811 Lyrics

I know the feeling

	It is the real thing

	The essence of the truth

	The perfect moment

	That golden moment

	I know you feel it too

	I know the feeling

	It is the real thing

	You can't refuse the embrace...

	It's like the pattern below the skin

	You gotta reach out and pull it all in

	And you feel like you're too close

	So you swallow another dose

	The pinnacle of happiness

	Filling up your soul

	You don't think you can take any more

	You never wanna let go

	To touch the roots of experience

	The most basic ingredients

	To see the unseen glitter of life

	And feel the dirt, grief, anger and strife

	Cherish the certainly of now

	It kills you a bit at a time

	Cradle the inspiration

	It will leave you writhing on the floor...

	This is so unreal, what I feel

	This nourishment, life is bent

	Into a shape I can hold

	A twist of fate, all my own

	Just grit your teeth, make no sound

	Take a step away and look around

	Just clench your fist and close your eyes

	Look deep inside, hypnotize

	The whisper is but a shout

	That's what it is all about

	Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray

	You will never let it slip away

	Like the sacred song that someone sings through you

	Like the flesh so warm that the thorn sticks into

	Like the dream you know one day will come to life

	Try to hold on just a little longer, stronger

	It's the jewel of victory

	The chasm of misery

	And once you have bitten the core

	You will always know the flavor

	The split second of divinity

	You drink up the sky

	All of heaven is in your arms

	You know the reason why

	It's right there, all by itself

	And what you are, there is nothing else

	You're growing a life within a life

	The lips of wonder kiss you inside

	And when it's over the feeling remains

	It all comes down to this

	The smoke clears, I see what it is

	That made me feel this way...

	This is so unreal, what I feel

	Flood, sell your soul, feel the blood

	Pump through your veins, can't explain

	The element that's everything

	Just clench your fist and close your eyes

	Look deep inside, hypnotize

	Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray

	You will never let it slip away

	Like the echoes of your childhood laughter, ever after

	Like the first time love urged you to take it's guidance, in silence

	Like your heartbeat when you realize you're dying, but you're trying

	Like the way you cry for a happy ending, ending...

	I know
