[Verse 1]
Break me, regret all my decisions
Listen, this is far from being alright
Show me, the other side of living
Giving everything to never come down
[Pre-Chorus]
Hoo-hoo-hoo
Wanted your love but you like me
Fuck, that's good enough
Hoo-hoo-hoo
Ran out of coffee, smokes and compliments
Hoo-hoo-hoo
Do you see what I see?
What I left inside?
[Chorus]
This accident seems so right
Thought I had myself figured out
We're holding on to fake friends
Yeah, religion's got me thinking, are you doing it right?
[Verse 2]
Slow down, this temperamental living
Say you're fearless but so lonely inside
So deep, this bittersweet conviction's
Got me cringing on the path you are bound
[Pre-Chorus]
Hoo-hoo-hoo
Wanted your love but you like me
Fuck, that's good enough
Hoo-hoo-hoo
Ran out of coffee, milk and confidence
Hoo-hoo-hoo
Do you see what I see?
What I left inside?
[Chorus]
This accident seems so right
Thought I had myself figured out
We're holding on to fake friends
Yeah, religion's got me thinking, are you doing it right?
Are you doing it right?
[Bridge]
Don't try to change me
'Cause you know I'll be there
When you cry in shame
Don't try to change me
'Cause you know I'll be there
When you cry in shame
Don't try to change me
'Cause you know I'll be there
When you cry in shame
Don't try to change me
'Cause you know I'll be there
When you cry in shame
[Chorus]
This accident seems so right
Thought I had myself figured out
Holding on to fake friends
Yeah, religion's got me thinking, are you doing it right?
Oh, are you doing it right?
[Outro]
(Don't try to change me)
('Cause you know I'll be there)
Are you doing it right? (When you cry in shame)
(Don't try to change me)
('Cause you know I'll be there)
(When you cry in shame)
Fake Friends was written by Tom Switlek & Lachlan Jones & Oscar Dawson & James Vann & Cameron Little.
Fake Friends was produced by Oscar Dawson.
The Vanns released Fake Friends on Fri Oct 25 2019.
As a band, we could all agree without saying this track would be the one to close out the album. It felt like it summed up our new direction as a band and it had this energy we could not get enough of when we played it live.
