Shinedown
Fake
[Verse 1]
This place has begun to cover me
I recall the light, but the dark smothers me
I prefer the feelings I know right now
I don’t worry about feeling very proud

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you don’t know how it feels to be misunderstood
To reach for the sky, I thought you never would
You don’t know how it feels to be misunderstood
To reach for the sky, I thought you never would

[Chorus]
But I’m bleeding and my hands are bruised
From the grip that I once had on you
And I’m open for a new way
'Cause there’s not much more that that I can fake

[Verse 2]
It’s almost seeing your soul for the first time
And watching the mirror show your life in rewind
Captured the ridicule of everyone
I’m tired of trying and they wonder why I’m gone

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you don’t know how it feels to be misunderstood
To reach for the sky, I thought you never would
You don’t know how it feels to be misunderstood
To reach for the sky, I thought you never would
[Chorus]
But I’m bleeding and my hands are bruised
From the grip that I once had on you
And I’m open for a new way
'Cause there’s not much more that that I can fake

I can’t fake it

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you don’t know how it feels to be misunderstood
To reach for the sky, I thought you never would
You don’t know how it feels to be misunderstood
To reach for the sky, I thought you never would

[Chorus]
But I’m bleeding and my hands are bruised
From the grip that I once had on you
And I’m open for a new way
'Cause there’s not much more that that I can fake

[Chorus]
But I’m bleeding and my hands are bruised
From the grip that I once had on you
And I’m open for a new way
'Cause there’s not much more that that I can fake
