It's the inescapable reality of riding a bicycle.

That's just the way of the football world, as much an inescapable reality as the automatic inclination to glamorise attackers in preference to those who do guard duty.

The music draws the listener into an imagined world, only to have the lyrics turn the attention back toward an inescapable reality.

How can a busy leader do justice to these inescapable realities?

He stands between two inescapable realities.
