Faking It
Emotional Deception: Navigating Unspoken Pain in 'Faking It'
Lyrics
Wasn’t too comfortable
Expressing discomfort in a situation
it wasn't honest when I told you
Acknowledging dishonesty in previous communication
I wanted to stay
Initially expressing a desire to stay
You were so vulnerable
Describing someone as emotionally exposed
it felt insufferable
Feeling unbearable due to vulnerability
but I couldn't deal with the weight
Unable to handle the emotional burden
I was faking it
Admitting to pretending or putting on a facade
I was faking it
Continuing to admit to faking emotions
I'll keep faking it
Committing to persist in faking for the other person's benefit
for your own sake
Stating the continuation of pretense for the well-being of the other
I was faking it
Reiterating the admission of faking emotions
I was faking it
Continuing to acknowledge the pretense
I'll keep faking it
Committing to persist in faking emotions
for your own sake
Repeating the commitment to maintain the facade for the other person's sake
Promise I wont talk anymore
Promising not to speak further
I won't make you cry anymore
Promising not to cause more tears
i don't wanna hurt you no more
Expressing a desire not to inflict pain
i'll go away
Deciding to distance oneself
Promise I wont talk anymore
Reiterating the promise not to speak further
I won't make you cry anymore
Reiterating the promise not to cause more tears
i don't wanna hurt you no more
Reiterating the desire not to hurt the other person
i'll go away
Repeating the decision to go away
I was trying guess
Attempting to guess or understand something
it's never enough
Expressing frustration that guessing is never sufficient
I won't fight it if
Being willing to avoid a conflict if the other person lets go
you don't let it go
Encouraging the other person to release something emotionally
I was trying guess
Reiterating the attempt to guess or understand
it's never enough
Expressing frustration that guessing remains insufficient
I can’t fight it if
Being unable to fight a situation without the other person letting go
you don't let it go
Encouraging the other person to release something emotionally
faking it
Reiterating the act of pretending or putting on a facade
I was faking it
Continuing to acknowledge the pretense
I’ll keep faking it
Committing to persist in faking emotions
for your own sake
Stating the continuation of pretense for the well-being of the other
I was faking it
Reiterating the admission of faking emotions
I was faking it
Continuing to acknowledge the pretense
I’ll keep faking it
Committing to persist in faking emotions
for your own sake
Repeating the commitment to maintain the facade for the other person's sake
