Faking It

Faking it, is easy
Life, love, happiness
All prey to a mask we adorn

Faking love
When its too difficult to say no
Or accept that you’ve grown apart

Faking happiness
So the neighbours won’t know
You’re not feelin’ great, anymore

Faking joie de vivre
Or loneliness would break your heart
Faking it, is easy

The price of not faking
Is to feel the pain
And not hide

Is to open your tender heart
To rejection and abuse
And still not loose faith

And believe in the hope, that you will
Find another who isn’t faking it
Faking it, after all, is easy, we all do it!
