Fake
Unmasking Truth: Guano Apes' 'Fake' Reveals the Struggle for Authenticity
Lyrics
We won't get away
We won't escape the situation or consequences.
We are left with hungry eyes
We are left with eager anticipation or desire.
And everybody wants the same
There is a universal desire among people for the same things.
I'm in love with the world and
The speaker is infatuated with the world.
Sometimes I can see a blink of paradise
Occasionally, the speaker perceives a glimpse of paradise.
Until we do it again
The cycle will repeat; actions will be done again.
We're into the fake
Engaging with or embracing artificial or deceptive elements.
As long as the truth has more enemies than the lie has friends
When the truth faces more opposition than the lie has supporters, deception prevails.
We're gonna do it again
The cycle of engaging in falsehoods will continue.
We're into the fake
Continued involvement with artificial or deceptive elements.
As long as the truth has more enemies than the lie has friends
Reiteration of the prevalence of opposition to the truth.
We just want to live
A desire for a genuine and authentic life.
And we don't want just another lie
Rejecting the acceptance of another falsehood.
Rolling like a stone on me
Feeling burdened or oppressed like a rolling stone.
And we could rule the world
Humanity could achieve greatness if our hearts were more compassionate.
If our hearts would have a bigger size
Greater empathy and compassion are needed for a better world.
Bigger than today
A call for actions that transcend the present moment.
We're gonna do it again
The cycle of actions will be repeated.
'Cause we're born into fake
Being born into or conditioned by falsehoods.
As long as the truth has more enemies than the lie has friends
Highlighting the prevalence of opposition to the truth.
We're gonna do it again
Continuation of engaging with artificial or deceptive elements.
'Cause we're into the fake
Ongoing association with the deceptive or artificial.
As long as the truth has more enemies than the lie has friends
Emphasizing the challenges faced by the truth.
Fake, fake, fake
Repetition of the term "fake" to emphasize the theme.
And we all have to pay
A collective responsibility to face consequences.
We're into the fake
Continued engagement with artificial or deceptive elements.
As long as the truth has more enemies than the lie has friends
Reiteration of the prevalence of opposition to the truth.
'Cause we were born to fake
Being inherently inclined or destined to deception.
And what a mistake
Reflection on the error of living a deceptive life.
As long as the truth has more enemies than the lie has friends
Highlighting the challenges faced by the truth in gaining acceptance.
