Fake

Pressure builds inside my aching lungs

My heart is pounding, wish I could calm down

It's all just fake, in a way

In my head, that's what they say

I walk it off, I'm trying, but I can't see

My eyes are so damn wet, it's just the rain

If it's so fake anyways

Why can't I push it away?

Look to the skies and I say

"Is anyone listening?"

Just tell me I'll be okay

This can't be real

I grew a couple inches on my hair

In a few different apartments through the years

It all feels fake, in a way

But somehow a girl's gotta change

I didn't know until I took a drive

Past that little corner where I cried

My tears are different today

Somehow I've come a long way

Look to the skies and I say

"I made it and I'm okay"

I've waited years for this day

And now it's real

And now it's real
