Fake Love Lyrics

I stood by you through bleached hair and tattoos

Drunken progress and sober setbacks

But the times I looked for strength and support

You met with judgement and cold indifference

Don’t try to escape unscathed

You should live through the nightmare you made

Even if you had the words to say

You wouldn’t say them

Boy I’m tired of singing with a bleeding heart

That you’ll never notice

I’d rather sleep with happiness alone

Then spend another night by your bedpost

Vengeance tastes so much sweeter than all of the fake love you gave me

You used to be integral to me

But like whiskey over ice you need the balance to suffice

Now that I’m clean

I feel a lot more like me

I’m no longer keeping your passivity

If forgiveness touches your lips

I’ll gladly meet it with both of my fists

Even if you had the words to say

You wouldn’t say them

Boy I’m tired of singing with a bleeding heart

That you’ll never notice

I’d rather sleep with happiness alone

Then spend another night by your bedpost

Vengeance tastes so much sweeter than all of the fake love you gave me

Save your breath I wouldn’t want you to choke

On an attempt to be honest such a redundant joke

Answer me this before you leave me alone

How does it feel to be nothing more than a waste of a boy?

Even if you had the words to say

You wouldn’t say them

Boy I’m tired of singing with a bleeding heart

That you’ll never notice

I’d rather sleep with happiness alone

Then spend another night by your bedpost

Vengeance tastes so much sweeter than all of the fake love you gave me
