Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ain't everyone afraid of bein' figured out
They're just a fraud, a blank charade
Some bluffin' hand that's been well played
[Verse 2]
A bleedin' mess, a passin' fool
A lucky dog that's gettin' by on nothing
Promisin' or truth
You'll forgive me my masquerade
[Verse 3]
I'll never tell a soul
You weren't full on, full on, full on
No, I'll never tell a soul
That you've been fakin' it for so long
[Verse 4]
La da da da da da
La da da da da da
[Verse 5]
And ain't everyone afraid of bein' figured out
There's all these answers, I don't know
Why do you think I don't keep you close?
[Verse 6]
And who gives you the right to see
Inside my lovely shelter, it's much safer to forget her
If you've never even known her
So forgive me my masquerade
[Verse 7]
I'll never tell a soul
You weren't full on, full on, full on, oh
No, I'll never tell a soul
That you've been fakin' it for so long
[Verse 8]
'Cause there's no honesty, you'll never get to know
So many parts of me I never want to show
A little mystery I make up as I go
And I know I can be so different than you
At least I hope this to be true
[Verse 9]
Oh, I'll never tell a soul
You weren't full on, full on, full on
No, I'll never tell a soul
That you've been fakin' it for so long
[Verse 10]
Oh, I will never tell a soul
You weren't full on, full on, full on
No, I'll never tell a soul
That you've been faking it for so long
[Verse 11]
There'll be a fallin' out that I've no wish to see
If we don't call each other out
Then we will both get off scot free
And you can be you and I'll get to stay me
