Fake
Emotional Rollercoaster: Struggling with Pretense
Lyrics
I'm falling in style and its for you
I'm experiencing a stylish descent, and it's connected to you.
Running wild for the things that you do
Engaging in unrestrained behavior for the actions you perform.
Calling a lot with nothing to talk about anymore
Frequent communication lacking substance, indicating a disconnect.
Head in the clouds, feet on the ground
Being dreamy and imaginative while staying grounded in reality.
Staying up late, watching our sound
Staying awake into the late hours, immersed in the sound we create.
I'm starting to think I've made a mistake
Questioning a decision made and starting to realize a potential mistake.
But I keep a smile, oh I am so fake
Maintaining a facade of happiness despite internal conflicts.
Tell me you feel this too
Seeking reassurance that the other person shares similar feelings.
Our colors are shining through
Expressing the visibility of emotions and connection between them.
Hoping it's one more night
Wishing for another night together before parting ways.
'Till I say goodbye
Acknowledging an imminent farewell.
I've been thinking 'bout the things you say
Reflecting on the impact of the other person's words.
Not to be pretentious but I already am
Admitting self-awareness and a touch of pretentiousness.
Don't wanna be caught in the thick of it
Avoiding getting deeply involved in a complicated situation.
Not to state the obvious but here I am
Acknowledging the obvious, present in the situation.
When am I gonna get out of this
Expressing a desire to break free from the current state.
And we're telling everybody that we're just friends
Pretending to be just friends when the relationship is more.
And I'm wishing things were different when you're not around
Wishing for a different reality when the person is absent.
My head is spinning underwater hope I don't drown
Feeling overwhelmed, with a fear of emotional drowning.
I've been thinking 'bout the things you say
Reiterating the impact of the other person's words on thoughts.
Not to be pretentious but I already am
Acknowledging self-awareness with a touch of pretentiousness again.
Don't wanna be caught in the thick of it
Avoiding entanglement in a complex situation.
Not to state the obvious but here I am
Noting the obvious presence in the situation once more.
When am I gonna get out of this
Expressing a desire to break free from the current state again.
And we're telling everybody that we're just friends
Pretending to be just friends while harboring deeper feelings.
And I'm wishing things were different when you're not around
Desiring a different reality when the person is not present.
My head is spinning underwater hope I don't drown
Feeling mentally overwhelmed and hoping not to succumb emotionally.
