Fake a Friend

Don't tell me I wouldn't understand

You know that's just another bad excuse

Even if I don't approve of what you might demand

I still appreciate to hear the truth

I've heard a thousand lies during my lifetime

From people who don't dare to just attack

But I prefer to see some sort of life sign

Rather than have people pat me on the back

Fake a smile and make it

Shake a hand and make pretend that I'm a friend

Your main objective is to stay afloat

That's why you always try and play it safe

You're so scared of sinking every time you rock the boat

And that's why you never look me in the face

You try to be someone that I've accepted

And that's the reason why you don't fit in

I can't talk to someone who's unable to object

And That's why the conversations growing thin
