Fake Love Lyrics

You call me up when the night gets thin,

A shadow dance on a fragile grin,

I'm your secret, your "just for now,"

A whispered vow we disavow.

Your eyes dodge mine, the truth's unclear,

A fleeting thrill is all that's here.

[Chorus]

A kind of love, fake love takes the crown,

A house of cards that's always tumbling down.

It's skin on skin, no hearts to share,

A midnight fix, a cold affair,

We play this game, no trust, no strings,

Just hollow echoes, fleeting things.

You roll away, I'm left to guess,

A pretty lie in a perfect mess.

[Chorus]

A kind of love, fake love takes the crown,

A house of cards that's always tumbling down.

Your texts are sweet, but they're a mask,

A borrowed line for a fleeting task,

I check your phone when shadows fall,

Find half-truths scrawled across the wall.

You're scared I'll stay, I'm scared you'll go,

We're trapped in fear we'll never show.

[Chorus]

A kind of love, fake love takes the crown,

A house of cards that's always tumbling down.

We dodge the word, let strings entwine,

A fragile truce on borrowed time,

You'll run to her, I'll chase my cure,

Betrayal's sting we both endure.

This love's a ghost we can't confess,

A wound we dress in tenderness.

[Chorus]

A kind of love, fake love takes the crown,

A house of cards that's always tumbling down.
