Fake

I can't stand the sight of you I can't stand what you put me through

Your life's a lie, that you hide is it that terrible being you inside

I can't stand all the thought of you I can't stand all the things you do

Why do you try to justify you are just to scared to be you inside

Let it all go(4x) Look at you all I see is a man too afraid to let it be(2x)

I can't stand what you put me through I can't stand even the thought of you

Your secret lies, that you hide is it that terrible being you inside

Let it all go(4x)

Look at you all I see is a man to afraid to (let it/ever) be (4x)

You try so hard to be wanted-false emotions tells you fronted

I think being a person relies on one thing: be yourself, let you come through

You're too afraid to really be-someone who isn't false and doesn't care

to be (2x)

("Be yourself, let you come through"-in the background)

Fake!(4x) Fake! And we with at you, we with it(8x)

Let it all go(4x, then repeat till end)

This song can be played on a "baritone" guitar (ADGCea)--

I'm not certain about Riff 4, if it has any arpegio on the 12 note after

the "Look at you, all I see..." part. I figured that since it doesn't

have it during the "Be yourself let you come through..." part, that the

first wouldn't either.

Listen to the album for the last riff-it's hard to show rests on the

computer.

The (let it/ever) thing is cuz he does both of them, the "And we with at

you, we with it" part I got from another guy, Daniel Christal, who

transcribed all the lyrics for the album. I don't want to advertise his

email address without his consent, so email me if you want the whole lyrics.

Laters--
