Fake

Lyrics

I can't stand the sight of you
I can't stand what you put me through
Your life's a lie, that you hide
Is it that terrible being you inside?
I can't stand, oh the thought of you
I can't stand all the things you do
What do you try to justify?
You were just too scared to be you inside

Let it all go

Look at you, all I see, is a man too afraid to really be

I can't stand what you put me through
I can't stand even the thought of you
Your secret lies that you hide
Is it that terrible being you inside?

Let it all go

Look at you, all I see, is a man too afraid to really be

You try so hard to be wanted
False emotions tells you fronted
I think being a person relies on one thing,
Be yourself, let you come through
You're too afraid to really be (Be yourself, let you come through)
Someone who isn't false, who dosen't care to be (Be yourself, let you come through)

Fake

Fake, you'll regret it, you'll regret it

Let it all go


Song Meaning

"I can't stand the sight of you, I can't stand what you put me through. Your life's a lie, that you hide. Is it that terrible being you inside?"

Jonathan is persecuted for being himself rather than another person trying to fit in with the crowd.

"You try so hard to be wanted. False emotions tells you fronted. I think being a person relies on one thing. Be yourself, let you come through"

Everyone wants to fit in so badly that they will change their appearance and opinions to that of the mainstream crowd.

"Fake, you'll regret it, you'll regret it"

Once they are older they will realise that they've wasted their youth by trying to be something they're not.
