Fake It Till We Die

A perfect night in New York City
I feel alive and kind of pretty
On this sunny Sunday evening when no work is being done

I put my feet on the ground
You make me stop and turn around
As I pass an empty square, no one can see
'Cause no one's there

But when you walk on by, through city lights
I'm on fire, you're like dynamite

You walk like a lion yellow man
I see myself holding your hand
You mesmerize me, as I come undone
You warm me like the sun

Even your walk has its own groove
That draws me deeply into you
I don't know where you're comin' from
You've got my heart beat like a drum

'Cause when you walk on by
Through citylights
Baby I'm on fire, you're like dynamite
Yeah when you walk on by
Through citylights
I'm on fire, 'til you're out of sight

There he goes
He walks in beauty shining bright
But how do you know if it's love at first sight

Hey girlfriend, I just met a man
And he's kind and sweet
And ain't afraid to tell the truth
He knows when to take my hand

Hey girlfriend, he seems like the perfect guy
And he makes me feel unlike I've ever felt before
And although it feels so right
But I can't help but wonder

Oh oh, I don't know
Can we get along, can we get along
Oh no, I don't know
Can we get along, can we get along
In the long term

Well you say let him in, 'cause good men are so hard to find
Let him love, let him hold you, let him heal your broken heart
He will never play your mind

Please help me, all this chaos in my mind
I don't want to lose control
I'm afraid to love him
And get blinded by the light
But I can't help but wonder

Oh oh, I don't know
Can we get along, can we get along
Oh no, I don't know
Can we get along, can we get along

Oh oh, I don't know
Can we get along, can we get along
Oh no, I don't know
Can we get along, can we get along
In the long term

By now I realize my head knocks against the stars
I've been to hell and back
And often wonder why people are spreading all this dirty light
Heavy thunder's rolling by
And sheds light to my scars
Now what about judgment day
Will there ever be a heaven where we both can stay

Blue Motel
I'm in some far off
Blue Motel
A distant place
Blue Motel
And all I yearn for
Blue Motel
Is a friendly face

It feels good to know
Although one will never be
Ya'll looking at the same stars on this lonely planet with me
Will there ever be a church where we both feel free

Blue Motel
I'm in some far off
Blue Motel
Distant place
Blue Motel
And all I yearn for
Blue Motel

Just a friendly face
To bring in the light
But my heart somehow craves for yet another night
In this blue motel

Burn motherfucker, burn motherfucker
Burn in hell
The rage roads in my soul and I can tell
I want you to
Burn motherfucker, burn motherfucker
Burn in hell
For bringin' me down and poppin' my bubble shell
You are taking up too much space

Cold and heartless
Like I won't behave
I once was your goddess
Reduced to a slave
I can't live behind a lie
Do you really want to do this
And fake it 'til we die

Burn motherfucker, burn motherfucker
Straight to hell
Pretend to be my lover lover
But it don't sit well
Burn motherfucker, burn motherfucker
Burn in hell
I'm amazed how many keep foolin' themselves
You are taking up too much space

Cold and heartless
Like I won't behave
Once your goddess
Reduced to a slave
We can't live behind a lie
Do you really want to do this
And fake it 'til we die

I don't care anymore
You really never had my back
The white pearls I once wore
They all turned to black
Now I know I should've never trust an innocent face
'Cause it will never give me the satisfaction that I crave

So let's fake it 'til we die

I've made many mistakes along the way
Let's hope you'll forgive me one day

I've done bad so many times
But haven't we all
At first it's all a good idea
But then I realize that my
Mistakes started to fall
The reason why was never clear

Despite it's time for me to change my ways
All my mistakes made me the woman I am today

Oh Lord did I
Oh Lord did I
Oh oh did I waste your water
Oh Lord did I
Did I
Oh Lord did I waste your water

Broken images kept floating inside my head
They never seemed to drift away
I was always way too quick to criticize what people said
Disappointed myself everyday
If my apology could change your mind
Have mercy on my soul
I never wanted to waste your time

Oh Lord did I
Oh Lord did I
Oh my did I waste your water
Oh Lord did I
Did I
Oh Lord did I waste your water
Did I waste your water

I'm sorry Lord forgive me for my sins
I need to come to you
Despite I had to run with the wind
I know you love me too

'Cause I never
Wanted to waste your time
Oh Lord
Have mercy on my soul

Don't walk away
Honey, I just wanna take it slow

This could be the story of our lives
We can be the one that make us strive
All we desire, could make us float higher and higher

Take it easy, 'cause we'll never know
How these sudden western winds will blow
Never forget, what's in your heart
That's where it all starts

Please don't walk away
Honey, I just wanna take it slow
No need for haste
We're not in a hurry, let it grow

Let us take a long walk on the beach
Listen to the sea, just you and me
Take a deep breath
Learn from the past
Watch the moon rising

Come on baby, let me hold your hand
I ain't looking for a one night stand
This lovin' fool
Tries to keep cool
No more disguising

Please don't walk away
Honey, I just want to take it slow
No need for haste
We're not in a hurry, let it grow

When we dreamers fall too fast
We'd better slow it down
So we do not again, hit the ground

When slowly the night falls
I remember him
Left behind in sadness
He's right under my skin

My eyes are drifting off
As I start to fade
My trust flushed down the toilet
All the way down the drain

I'm the girl who never seems to get it right
Don't you see the tears I fight to hold inside
I feel myself breaking more and more

You need a handyman
Can I hire you to fix my broken heart
I will do whatever you want me to do
Repair the holes in me
I will try
Before I grow weary

You need a handyman
Well as long as you will tell me that you need me
I will say whatever you want me to say
Can I buy anything
It's all for free
Well, then tell me that you love me

My heart still cries, I wish he was still here
All of my dreams are now replaced with fear
Visions of the past
Remain in my mind
Sometimes I have to cry, for all the thoughts that I must hide

And I want to dry my eyes and not feel like a fool
But what's the thing I need to get over you
Does anybody out there know what I need

You need a handyman
Can I hire you to fix my broken heart
I will do whatever you want me to do
Repair the holes in me
I will try
Before I grow weary

You need a handyman
Well as long as you will tell me that you need me
I will say whatever you want me to say
Can I buy anything
It's all for free
Well, then tell me that you love me
Do you love me

I need someone to care for me
Tell me what I need
Can anybody, tell me yeah

I live my life in light, and try to be more than a winner
Or I can burn in hell like any other sinner
Because my love comes from inside
I won't show my true face when I get terrified

So I better fake it 'til I die
I'll blame it on tomorrow, blame it on the sun
I can't blame on people 'cause they don't know what they have done
I'll blame it on the moonlight, blame it on the night
Not everybody strives to see their inner light
The light

So I'll fake a smile
And act all tall and proud
I suffer in silence when the world is way too loud
I feel like the wrong note, in a perfect song
The struggles inside, I don't belong
So I better fake it 'til I die

I'll blame it on tomorrow, blame it on the sun
I can't blame the people 'cause they don't know what they have done
I'll blame it on the moonlight, blame it on the night
Not everybody strives to see their inner light
The light

When all the roads seem to go uphill
Rest your head, try to keep it real
You're feeling low when debts are high
There are no smiles, all you do is sigh
When it's nothing but difficult times
I know

It's a long way down
A really long hard way down from here
It's a long long way
A really long hard way down from here
And there is no way out from lack of air and cold fear
It's just a really long way from here

When you think all is lost, try to remember
You have felt this way many times before
Pray to God for help, try to surrender
Let him shed a light for ever more
When it's nothing but difficult times
I know

It's a long way down
A really long hard way down from here
It's a long long way
A really long hard way down from here
And there is no way out from lack of air and cold fear
It's just a really long way from here

I'm looking at the sky, it's another black day
A mix of black and white
No compromise, all is grey
It's all in me, dissatisfaction good and the bad
But even in the grey space
I'm forcing myself to look ahead
Aware of people who pretend to be lovers
I walk along the line, one foot in front of the other
One of the things I've learned, beauty is only skin deep
Places in between the lines, but all they do is talk cheap

Save all my brothers
Save all my sisters
Black or white or grey
Agree or disagree
And when you can't
It's okay

'Cause coming from where I'm from
I don't need anything
Coming from where I'm from
I don't need nobody else
To tell me I'm worth something

Judging people by their faces or religions
On their race, and staying stuck in old traditions
Look a little deeper, way down deep inside
There is more to me, don't judge on what you see

Save all my brothers
Save all my sisters
Black or white or grey
Agree or disagree
But when you can
It's still okay

'Cause coming from where I'm from
I don't need anything
Coming from where I'm from
I don't need nobody else
To tell me I'm worth something

Heaven on earth, that's what I wanted
That's what I got
Took me from 1 to level 10
He wants to tie the knot
All the energy that he brings is power to me
He holds on and still let's me breath

Whether the day is good or bad
He's a joy to me
All I know is I ended up where I was meant to be
Don't have to die to be in heaven, that I realize
All I do is close my eyes
'Cause I know

That where his mouth is, that is where my money is
At least I always know where I stand
Where his mouth is, that is where my money is
Oh yeah that's my man, my man

And there he was, my love, the one that found me
He wept to see me weep, then put his arms around me
Believe me, I still get afraid everyday of giving my heart away
Although I know

That where his mouth is, that is where my money is
At least I always know where I stand
Where his mouth is, that is where my money is
Yeah, that's my man, my man

He inspires me
And he wanna make me dream again so freely

I'm a lone wolf in sheep's clothing, that's no lie
But I'm as sweet as nectar to the naked eye
I'm about to burn, I've got the fire all over me
And it's alarming how fast it brings you to your knees

Down daddy down
Daddy daddy down down
Go down
Down daddy down
Daddy daddy down down
Bow down

Down daddy down
Daddy daddy down down
Go down
On me
Down daddy down
Daddy daddy down down
Bow down

I see them big brown eyes crawling over me
You sure love my legs and what is in between
Spare me the eyes when you're eating me alive
Just open that mouth and give that tongue some exercise

Down daddy down
Daddy daddy down down
Go down
Down daddy down
Daddy daddy down down
Bow down

Down daddy down
Daddy daddy down down
Go down
On me
Down daddy down
Daddy daddy down down
Bow down
On me

Talk dirty to me
I'll tell you how I want it

Talk dirty to me
I'll tell you how I like it
