Real Love
[Verse 1]
This isn't easy
For me to admit
I got a fire inside and some words I know I can't keep in
I see faith turning
Into a show
Of Sundays and sermons
And words getting caught in the flow
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, but we got real pain and real fears
Thirsting for the drying of our real tears
It's not satisfying anymore
Ain't it true that the veil was torn
[Chorus]
I don't need no stained glass
To be washed in his blood
I don't need no perfect, put together pretty words
To be enough, no
I want Jesus and his real love
Something I crave deep inside of my bones
So you can leave your religion at home
[Verse 2]
Spent my life trying
To keep all the rules
Now I know it's about what he's already done
Not about what I think that I gotta do
[Chorus]
I don't need no stained glass
To be washed in his blood
I don't need no perfect, put together pretty words
To be enough, no
I want Jesus and his real love
Something I crave deep inside of my bones
So you can leave your religion at home
[Post-Chorus 1]
I want real, real love, hey
[Bridge]
I got real pain and real fears
Thirsting for the drying of real tears
It's not satisfying anymore
Ain't it true that the veil was torn
[Chorus]
I don't need no stained glass
To be washed in his blood
I don't need no perfect, put together pretty words
To be enough, no
I want Jesus and his real love
Something I crave deep inside of my bones
So you can leave your religion at home
[Post-Chorus 1]
I want real, real love
I want real, real love
I want real, real love
Oh, ye—yeah, yeah
