Fake a Life
Unmasking Lives: Navigating Desires and Deceptions
Lyrics
Drinking and breathing indecision dine on discontentment
Expressing the consumption of uncertainty and dissatisfaction.
That fills you up tonight and this becomes
The dissatisfaction becomes a part of one's life.
Your life wonder what it might feel like to interact with human beings
Curiosity about experiencing genuine connections with others.
Who look you in the eyes but you're alone All the time
Feeling alone despite potential human interactions.
I know how it is to want more for yourself
Acknowledging the desire for more in one's life.
I know what it is to need more
Recognizing the need for personal growth.
Are we all what we are or Are we all what we claim to be
Questioning authenticity and self-representation.
Everything I know and everywhere I've been says
Reflecting on personal experiences shaping perception.
We only see what we want to see
Highlighting selective perception—seeing what one wants to see.
If we can should we all fake our lives
Raising the question of whether pretending is necessary.
So casually with everything we love and nothing that we hate
Questioning the authenticity of expressions of love and hate.
Pretending to Be what we'll never be
Engaging in pretense and adopting false identities.
Deeper into isolation
Entering a deeper state of isolation and detachment.
A crevasse in your mind that you've had circled for some time
Describing a persistent mental struggle or dilemma.
And Now you're stuck inside
Being trapped within one's own thoughts.
Watch anonymous acquaintances live lives you'll never lead
Observing others live enviable lives from an anonymous position.
While jealousy and spite are Gripping you so tight
Experiencing negative emotions like jealousy and spite.
I know how it is to want more for yourself
Reiterating the desire for personal improvement.
I know what it is to need more
Acknowledging ongoing personal needs and aspirations.
Are we all what
Pondering on the authenticity of self.
We are or are we all what we claim to be?
Repeating the question of whether we are true to ourselves.
Everything I know and everywhere I've been says
Recalling experiences shaping a limited perspective.
We only see what we Want to see If we can
Reemphasizing selective perception and its consequences.
Should we all fake our lives so casually
Questioning the ease with which people fake their lives.
With everything we love and nothing that we hate
Highlighting the paradox of loving what is false and hating what is genuine.
Pretending to be what we'll never be
Continuing the theme of pretending to be something unattainable.
