Real Life
The Score Lyrics

I'm tired of dreaming, when all I believe in Seems far away, I'm tired of staying This town has no meaning unless it's us leaving Pick up today, make our escape
The singer is fatigued from hoping that their aspirations will become a reality, and realizing that it seems distant. Furthermore, they feel bored with being in their current location unless their significant other accompanies them. Consequently, they propose that they leave today.

There's a whole other world with our names on it, girl So let's make our plane 'cause life's a game There's a fork in the road where the ordinary go We'll make our own way, make our own way
The singer tells their partner that there is a great, uncharted world meant for them, and they should build their future together. They stress that mundane people can take one direction, so they should take their own path.

With all the places left to see From old London to Beijing Watch the sunset here with me We're living now, so let's make this real
The singer acknowledges that there are various sites for them to explore together, from London to Beijing. So, they suggest watching the sunset today and enjoying life to the fullest.

It's not where we started, it's about where we're going So don't look now, it's a long way down The mountains we moved, skies that we flew Can you hear the sound? I can hear it now
The artist asserts that what matters is where they end up, regardless of where they began. Recalling their past experiences, they believe that they can achieve what they want and can hear the sound of opportunities opening up to them.

All the places left to see From Madrid to NYC Watch the sun rise here with me We're living now, so let's make this real
The artist names other sights they wish to visit, such as Madrid and New York City. They also propose watching the sunrise in their current location today, as they want to seize the day and live their lives fully.

1, 2, 3 Go, oh oh oh There's more to this than black and white Go, oh oh oh So let's make this real life Go, oh oh oh 'Cause living safe ain't living right Go, oh oh oh So let's make this real life!
The singer commands their partner to take action and make their dreams a reality, as there's more to life than choosing between two options. They emphasize that playing it safe is not the same as truly living, so let's start living for real.

Let's make this real life Let's make this real life Let's make this real life Let's make this real life
The singer concludes the song by repeating the idea that they want to change their lives, stop dreaming and pondering, and start living their lives intentionally and fully.
