Fake It Lyrics by Tonight Alive

What Are You So Scared Of (Japanese Edition)

2011

Well, I'm not gonna lie
How can I put this easy?
I try and try but what for, just to please you?
It's true, you're wasting my time
You're just a waste of time
And I don't see why, I should listen
To someone who can't listen to themselves
Just listen to yourself
Fake it, you'll never get ahead of it
Trace it, back to where we started
'Cause back track, baby back tracking never got you nothing
(One step forward and two steps back.)
And if you fake it, they'll never know your real name
Trace it, just to find it's such a shame
You wasted your chance
Tasted everything before you ever held it
Well, I was never gonna complain
But why should I hold back when I wanted to be on your side?
You're wasting my time
You're just a waste of time
And now I can see, all you wanted was just a chance
To be in the spot light
Well baby it's not right and sincerely I'm sick and tired
Fake it, you'll never get ahead of it
Trace it, back to where we started
'Cause back track, baby back tracking never got you nothing
(One step forward and two steps back.)
And if you fake it, they'll never know your real name
Trace it, just to find it's such a shame
You wasted your chance
Tasted everything before you ever held it in your hands
They're shaking now, don't break it now
We'll break it down, is this clear enough?
You're shaking now, don't break it now
We'll break it down
You're shaking now, don't break it now
We'll break it down
Everybody jump, everybody say 'Woah.'
Everybody's swaying, everybody say 'Woah.'
Everybody jump, everybody say 'Woah.'
Everybody's swaying, everybody say 'Woah.'
Fake it, you'll never get ahead of it
Trace it, back to where we started
'Cause back track, baby back tracking never got you nothing
(One step forward and two steps back.)
And if you fake it, they'll never know your real name
Trace it, just to find it's such a shame
You wasted your chance
Tasted everything before you ever held it in your hands
Wasted your chance, tasted everything before
You ever held it in your hands
