What's Real, What's Fake

WHAT'S REAL, WHAT'S FAKE [Verse 1] Everybody's wearing faces, Everybody's playing games, Smiling like they mean it While they're hiding all the blame. You tell me that you're honest, But your words don't match your eyes, I've heard a thousand stories Wrapped in pretty little lies. [Pre-Chorus] So tell me, what's the truth? Tell me, what remains? When the lights go out And nobody's watching anyway? [Chorus] What's real and what's fake? What's love and what's hate? Who's standing beside me And who's waiting for me to break? What's truth and what's lies? What's hidden behind those eyes? When everything falls apart, I'll find out what's real tonight. [Verse 2] You can paint yourself a picture, You can build yourself a throne, You can fool the whole damn world But you can't fool me alone. I've been burned by empty promises, I've been cut by words that sting, Now I listen to the silence More than anything you sing. [Pre-Chorus] So tell me, what's the truth? Tell me, what remains? When the masks come crashing down And we're standing in the flames? [Chorus] What's real and what's fake? What's love and what's hate? Who's standing beside me And who's waiting for me to break? What's truth and what's lies? What's hidden behind those eyes? When everything falls apart, I'll find out what's real tonight. [Bridge] No more pretending, No more disguise, No more believing Every word that you advertise. If you're real, then stay beside me, If you're fake, get out of my way. I'd rather face the truth alone Than live inside a lie every day. [Final Chorus] What's real and what's fake? What's worth giving and what's worth taking? Who's got my back When there's nothing left to save? What's truth and what's lies? Now I can see through your eyes. When everything falls apart, The real ones never hide. [Outro] What's real? What's fake? What's truth? What's hate? Strip away the masks tonight— And let the real ones remain
