Cover art for Candy lyrics by Gavin DeGraw

so I know this song is fairly new but I still can't believe I am the first to comment on it... I LOVE this song. It's a social commentary on how people all too often obsess themselves with the media when there's real life that is more important and as real as it gets. You can't let yourself get distracted with the lives of celebrities and such because that's mostly all fake. You can't survive on candy :)
