Fake It

Ben Marwood


Recently I've realised as I have stood atop my stage
Looking at the rows of faces, I think I'm filled with twisted rage
It's taken me 'till 9pm one rainy saturday in june to realize
That this is no way near where I thought I could be it's true.

This is the way I feel now, and it's taken me so long to see
That the words you hang off of, are never really the feelings of me.

Do you honestly believe there is no fucking difference between
All the boys and all the girl bands you see every day on your tv,
And me?

Someone once told me that ambition fuels the human race
Well I believe that inspiration more than has it's pride of place.
If you strip me of ambition I would not sit motionless,
But if we're stripped of inspiration we'd all run for government I guess.

This is the way I feel now, and it's taken me so long to see
That the words you hang off on, are never really the feelings of me.
