Counterfeit Heart

Folder: 
The Long Night

Sometimes I feel like I don't belong like I'm not part of the click

Like life's an inside joke and nobody has told it

My friends all flirt with whores but I could give a damn

Love like that ain't worth a cent and that's just the way I am

They always try to be something that they're not

I just try to be myself and enjoy the things I got



You can't fake love, you can't fake pain

You can't fake those suicidal thoughts that flow into your brain

You can't fake rich and you can't fake cool

You can't fake a lie when you're staring straight at the truth



It's not a game you can play with friends or a melody in the dark

You've got to feel it deep down in your soul cause it comes straight from the heart



I know that I have dreams and they're bigger than the stars

I know this road is long and the rocks I walk are hard

I know where I come from and I realize who I am

I know what I feel inside and I know when to take a stand

I won't stand idly by and let society break me down

I won't give up without a fight and lose the prizes that abound



You can't fake love, you can't fake pain

You can't fake those suicidal thoughts that flow into your brain

You can't fake rich and you can't fake cool

You can't fake a lie when you're staring straight at the truth



It's not a game you can play with friends or a melody in the dark

You've got to feel it deep down in your soul cause it comes straight from the heart



Well I never was a preacher so it's not my place to judge

Never been a fighter and I can't say I'm ever loved

Charity is for the poor and leave your pity at the door

I just want to live my life and always strive for more

It's still a shame though that you ain't got very far

No matter what happens to me just remember who you are



You can't fake love, you can't fake pain

You can't fake those suicidal thoughts that flow into your brain

You can't fake rich and you can't fake cool

You can't fake a lie when you're staring straight at the truth



It's not a game you can play with friends or a melody in the dark

You've got to feel it deep down in your soul cause it comes straight from the heart
