Reality
Eskobar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Met you by surprise,
I didn't realize
that my life would change forever
Saw you standing there,
I didn't know I cared
there was something special in the air
Dreams are my reality,
the only kind of real fantasy
Illusions are a common thing
I try to live in dreams
It seems as if it's meant to be
Dreams are my reality,
a different kind of reality
I dream of loving in the night
And loving seems alright
Although it's only fantasy

If you do exist,
honey don't resist
show me a new way of loving
Tell me that it's true,
show me what to do
I feel something special about you
Dreams are my reality,
the only kind of reality
may be my foolishness has past
And may be now at last
I'll see how a real thing can be
Dreams are my reality,
a wonderous world where I like to be
I dream of holding you all night
and holding you seems right
perhaps that's my reality

Met you by surprise,
I didn't realize
that my life would change forever
Tell me that it's true,
feelings that are cue
I feel something special about you
Dreams are my reality,
a wonderous world where I like to be
Illusions are a common thing
I try to live in dreams
although it's only fantasy
Dreams are my reality,
I like to dream of you close to me
I dream of loving in the night




and loving you seems right
Perhaps that's my reality

I hate how Netflix missed out the many, many horrible things he did, including to his wife.

Jared Greathouse

What did he do to her

Jared Greathouse

I don't know if you've ever heard of it, but there's a pretty good movie called The Devil's Double, about Saddam Hussein's body double back when he was in power. The dude who they spoke to (the real body double of Saddam) said that he had to leave out lots of what he saw because he didn't want it to be a horror film. I suspect much of that is true here, you couldn't literally show half of the stuff Pablo did because it would be endless
