Fake - Shinedown

This place has begun to cover me I recall the light, but the dark smothers me I prefer the feelings I know right now

I don’t worry about feeling very proud

You don’t know how it feels

To be misunderstood

To reach for the sky

I thought you never would

You don’t know how it feels

To be misunderstood

To reach for the sky

I thought you never would

But I’m bleeding, and my hands are bruised

From the grip that I once had on you

And I’m open for a new way

Because there’s not much more that I can fake

It’s almost seeing your soul for the first time

And watching the mirror show you life in rewind

Capture the ridicule of everyone

I’m tired of trying, and they wonder why I’m gone

You don’t know how it feels

To be misunderstood

To reach for the sky

I thought you never would

You don’t know how it feels

To be misunderstood

To reach for the sky

I thought you never would

But I’m bleeding, and my hands are bruised

From the grip that I once had on you

And I’m open for a new way

Because there’s not much more that I can fake

I can’t fake it You don’t know how it feels

To be misunderstood

To reach for the sky

I thought you never would

You don’t know how it feels

To be misunderstood

To reach for the sky

I thought you never would

But I’m bleeding, and my hands are bruised

From the grip that I once had on you

And I’m open for a new way

Because there’s not much more that I can fake

But I’m bleeding, and my hands are bruised

From the grip that I once had on you

And I’m open for a new way

Because there’s not much more that I can fake
