Fake and You Know It

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Takes one to know one Not always, but often enough Sometimes when you've seen the pattern before But often when you're just jealous 'Cause if your secret ever gets out You can't pull that crap anymore So you gotta snuff out anyone Who ever gets too close to that closet door [Pre-Chorus] But it wasn't designed for skeletons And there's already one that you live in And you can live in both if you want But don't call bullshit if you ever see that again, or get caught [Chorus] And you're a fake and we all know it We'll give a chance just to watch you blow it We laid a trap but we don't notice The irony or hypocrisy That we only found you fake Doing the exact same things We were doing the exact same things And that's bad, so you're bad, and we're (fine) [Verse 2] Things weren't better way back when But honestly? Some stuff was TV and Radio could be surprising And once upon a time we decriminalized love And soon love might become a thought crime I'm sick of living Orwell's books And everytime I say it's fucked, everytime I bring it up I'm getting sick of all these dirty looks [Pre-Chorus] I mean, what the actual fuck? Wasn't being alive hard enough? You did not let them d-do this But they got to do this by lying to all of us [Chorus] And that means they're fake and we all know it They gave a chance just to watch me blow it They laid a trap but they don't notice The irony or hypocrisy That they only found me fake Doing the exact same things Yeah, they were doing the exact same things And that's bad, and we're bad, and I'm... I'm, I'm never gonna make sense of this (fine) [Bridge] Dear listener, and whoever else You only belong to yourself There's a reason that you're here, when you find out what it is Please hold it dear, me? When I find out, I'll tell you in a song And I'll pack it up in a blog Life has always been such a fuckin slog Why I should give up now is just not clear [Pre-Chorus] So if you have an axe to grind But it never made sense, it's time to relent Fifteen years ago, I wondered why those types of folks weren't already dead [Chorus] They're fake and we all know it They give a chance just to watch you blow it They lay a trap but we don't notice The irony or hypocrisy That we only found you fake Doing the exact same things Yeah, doing the exact same things And that's bad, and we're bad And we're fake and we all know it We give a chance just to watch us blow it We'll lay a trap but we don't notice The irony or hypocrisy That we only found us fake Doing the exact same things Yeah, we're all doing the exact same things So that's bad, and we're bad, and we're fine I guess? What the fuck
