Fake it 'till you make it.

I'm thinking thoughts I can't stop

I'm feeling more than I want and I can take

I think that this is enough

I can't let this feeling overcome,

what's left of me.

They say you fake it till you make it

but I'm faking 'till I'm breaking

and there's no way out of this one

They say just fake it till you make it

but I slowly feel it breaking

and there's no way out unharmed

(Your words don't mean a thing)

Your words mean everything.

I'm feeling so out of place

My thoughts are growing and I'm running out of space

I'm thinking this is enough

But I can't open my mouth and let out,

what's locked inside.

Not this time,

Not tonight

Not today, not now

no, I can't let it out

They say you fake it till you make it

but I'm faking 'till I'm breaking

and there's no way out of this one

They say just fake it till you make it

but I slowly feel it breaking

and there's no way out unharmed

(Your words don't mean a thing.)

Your words mean everything.
