Songtexte Fake Me Out - Johnny Manchild and the Poor Bastards

Everyday's another powder keg
Waiting, wanting to go off
I haven't met a moment free of it
The sense of something going wrong
Something deeper underneath the skin
I carried with me all along
I never seem to keep control of it
Every time I think it's gone
I am wrong
I am wrong

Fake me out, take me for a heartbreak
I'm happier than I've ever been
Make me the center of attention
Get me out, let me be alone again
I love you like I never knew how
I hate you so much it makes me sick
I'm begging for another way out
I'm dying for another way back in

And I forget just what I wrote
The step by step to coming home
And can we let this all go?
Will I regret? Can I move on?

Man oh man, you ain't seen nothing yet
Watch me tumble, watch me go
Watch me fade behind a cigarette
Follow me into the low

We can go
Where you won't
Even know me anymore
We can go to the low

Fake me out, take me for a heartbreak
I'm happier than I've ever been
Make me the center of attention
Get me out, let me be alone again
I love you like I never knew how
I hate you so much it makes me sick
I'm begging for another way out
I'm dying for another way back
