Reality Bites Video (MV)

When you're drunk anticipating every line
You know a movie has really entered your life
Staring straight into the world you know so well
And forgetting all the worlds around your screaming self

Troy Dire smokes his Camel straights
A random lottery of tragedy and a series of near escapes
He doesn't seem to like the world
But he knows it

I don't know if I have learned from what I've seen, but it has changed me
I don't know if I am living or pretending to be

Lelaina Pierce feels washed up at 22
Stuck between a freak, a yuppie, and a fine gap employee
She takes Vikkie to the diner to tell her it'll be fine

And Sammy Gray rehearsed coming out on camera
Nearly joking, thought provoking, Vikkie pretends she is old
And then the next scene, he is locked out of his house and contemplating

And Michael doesn't seem to get Lelaina's vision
He's kind but just not smart enough to say the right thing
All you have to be by 23 is yourself
