Fake It

[Verse 1]
Found myself with the same condition
After sleeping all week just to kick that addiction
But the girl I followed home kept unplugging my brain again
Each long day was a hard fought drag
But I kept her sane with a little known fact
She'd be hopeless to resist all the things she missed

[Chorus]
It was love, but I couldn't fake it
Things would be different now if she'd known my name
It was tough and we couldn't make it
Thought if I kept my distance she'd keep me sane
I was wrong but that's my only game

[Verse 2]
Kept my watch but the view was hazy
As I proved to myself that I'm still not crazy
But the girls always found a way to make me come unhinged again
So I start to think that I'd do much better
Just to drop out of site disappear forever
Cause I knew she would be pissed when she finds out I exist

[Chorus]
It was love, but I couldn't fake it
Things would be different now if she'd known my name
It was tough, and we couldn't make it
Thought if I kept my distance she'd keep me sane
It was rough and we couldn't take it
Figured I just hang back till I fanned your flame
I was wrong but that's my only game

[Bridge]
Trust this crooked smile cause you got nothing left to lose
And it seems so long for something came along
That could give me something to prove

[Chorus]
It was love, but I couldn't fake it
Things would be different now if she'd known my name
It was tough, and we couldn't make it
Thought if I kept my distance she'd keep me sane
It was love, but I couldn't fake it
Things would be different now if she'd known my name
It was tough, and we couldn't make it
Thought if I kept my distance she'd keep me sane

[Outro]
It was love, love from far away
It was love, love from far away
