Another early morning
It's time for me to put on
My disguise
Of the guy I want to be
Mr. Happy-Go-Lucky
Mr. "Hey nice shirt"
Mr. "Hey did you hear that Carol's getting married?
Well ain't that swell"
But when the lights go out you're still
Falling asleep alone
Just wondering how it all went wrong
You used to
Fear the end but now
You're thinking about skipping ahead
Could it be so bad?
Not as bad as this
You gotta fake it til' you make it
And so I'll give it a try
Yeah I'll fake it til' I make it
Taking in the sunshine
You traded drugs and booze for
Running shoes
And self help books
This is the brand new you
But when the lights go out you're still
Falling asleep alone
Just wondering how it all went wrong
You used to
Fear the end but now
You're thinking about skipping ahead
Could it be so bad?
Not as bad as this
You gotta fake it til' you make it
Falling asleep alone
Just wondering how it all went wrong
You used to
Fear the end but now
You're thinking about skipping ahead
Could it be so bad?
Not as bad as this
You gotta fake it til' you make it
And so I'll give it a try
Yeah I'll fake it til' I make it
