"Fake It 'Til You Make It" lyrics
Fake it 'til you make it, that's what they say
Well I must've made it 'cause I've been faking every day
If being sad was a crime, I'd do time
If loneliness was a race, I'd be ahead by a mile
The year is 2026
I never thought it'd be like this
Watching the world become a place I used to know
With all these strangers on a screen
They're all just staring back at me
I'm so connected but I still feel so alone
And inside I'm dying
But I hide it
With a picture-perfect smile
I post it online
Did you go like it?
Do I even like myself?
Fake it 'til you make it, that's what they say
Well I must've made it 'cause I've been faking every day
If being sad was a crime, I'd do time
If loneliness was a race, I'd be ahead by a mile
Fake it 'til you make it, it's not that hard
But every day that I fake it only breaks my heart
Don't wanna do this and I can't lie
I'm tired of faking I just wanna live my life
I tried every filter and facade
I swiped and scrolled 'til I could not
But in the end I just can't seem to face the truth
I hate this superficial life
I hate how much I need the likes
This validation wasn't worth my wasted youth
And inside I'm dying
But I hide it
With a picture-perfect smile
I post it online if
You don't like it
Then I'll just go take it down
Fake it 'til you make it, that's what they say
Well I must've made it 'cause I've been faking every day
If being sad was a crime, I'd do time
If loneliness was a race, I'd be ahead by a mile
Fake it 'til you make it, it's not that hard
But every day that I fake it only breaks my heart
Don't wanna do this and I can't lie
I'm tired of faking I just wanna live my life
And when you finally see
This mess inside of me
Have some patience, please
If I'm not who you thought I'd be
'Cause I'm not who you thought
I'd be
Fake it 'til you make it, that's what they say
Well, I must've made it 'cause I've been faking every day
If being sad was a crime, I'd do time
If loneliness was a race, I'd be ahead by a mile
Fake it 'til you make it, it's not that hard
And honestly I am ready for a brand new start
Don't wanna do this and I can't lie
I'm tired of faking I just wanna live my...
Well I must've made it 'cause I've been faking every day
If being sad was a crime, I'd do time
If loneliness was a race, I'd be ahead by a mile

Watching the world become a place I used to know
