Fake love ...

Sad piano, rustic guitar, layered vocals, subtle strings, 808 bass; soft intro, dynamic build, ambient fade-out

V3.5

Pre-Chorus
And I don’t care if you lie to me
Or if you don’t look in my eyes
When we kiss goodnight, it's alright
Just let me feel alive

Chorus
I’d rather wake up in your fake love
Than be left out here on my own
Give me somethin' real or just pretend
Make me feel like I exist again
Count the seconds on your wrist
Just make me feel like this is it
Every night, every day
'Cause maybe this pain will fade away

Verse 2
Sellin' myself out, cheap as I can be
Reaching for you, just want it to be real
Wishin' I had someone to hold me
More than shadows on the wall that taunt my soul
They laugh and haunt me, keep me cold
And like everyone else, when morning comes, you’re gone
But I’d rather wake up in your fake love
Than face the day alone

Pre-Chorus
And I don’t care if it’s make-believe
Just make me feel like I exist
I’m verified by tears I try to cry
Every time you leave me like this

Bridge
They say soon the sadness will fade
At least that’s what the experts say
But they don’t know me, they don’t know
The empty nights, the cold shadow show

Outro
Oh, I’d rather wake up in your fake love
Than face another day alone
Even if it’s just pretend, let it never end
Just give me one more night again

Verse 1 I’d rather wake up in your fake love Than face the day alone, yeah Returnin' back to a cold home Waitin' by the telephone For a call that never comes, no one on the line I sit in that chair, same song on rewind The same old voices playin’ on the TV Keep me company, but they just don’t see me Pre-Chorus And I don’t care if you lie to me Or if you don’t look in my eyes When we kiss goodnight, it's alright Just let me feel alive Chorus I’d rather wake up in your fake love Than be left out here on my own Give me somethin' real or just pretend Make me feel like I exist again Count the seconds on your wrist Just make me feel like this is it Every night, every day 'Cause maybe this pain will fade away Verse 2 Sellin' myself out, cheap as I can be Reaching for you, just want it to be real Wishin' I had someone to hold me More than shadows on the wall that taunt my soul They laugh and haunt me, keep me cold And like everyone else, when morning comes, you’re gone But I’d rather wake up in your fake love Than face the day alone Pre-Chorus And I don’t care if it’s make-believe Just make me feel like I exist I’m verified by tears I try to cry Every time you leave me like this Chorus I’d rather wake up in your fake love Than be left out here on my own Give me somethin' real or just pretend Make me feel like I exist again Count the seconds on your wrist Just make me feel like this is it Every night, every day 'Cause maybe this pain will fade away Bridge They say soon the sadness will fade At least that’s what the experts say But they don’t know me, they don’t know The empty nights, the cold shadow show Chorus I’d rather wake up in your fake love Than be left out here on my own Give me somethin' real or just pretend Make me feel like I exist again Count the seconds on your wrist Just make me feel like this is it Every night, every day 'Cause maybe this pain will fade away Outro Oh, I’d rather wake up in your fake love Than face another day alone Even if it’s just pretend, let it never end Just give me one more night again
