Fakin' My Way To the Top

I'm fakin my way to the top All smiles and a joyous voice Fake "Good morning sunshines" Fake laugter, fake bright eyes, fake happy-go-lucky attitude F.A.K.E! F.A.K.E! F.A.K.E!! All FAKE!!!!! I'm fakin my way to the top listenin' to my music, quiet enraged, annoyed, lugubrious full of ready-to-tell-lies when asked whats wrong "Just tired. Got a lot on my mind" spoken in a high spirited voice trying to sound convincing but its ALL FREAKIN' F.A.K.E!!! I'm fakin my way to the top walkin down old memory lane tears pouring down my eyes... hitting my shirt like bullets fear rushing through my entire body I wanna crawl into a hole and rot I wanna scream in pain But I'm fakin my way to the top Gotta hold my composure Smoke my cigarette, cut my wrist, and hope to die I'm fakin my way to the top All smiles, laughter, and F.A.K.E!!!
