Fading Illusions of Fake Love

Whispers in the dark, shadows of our past

Faking it, I know, but I want it to last

Caught between the truth and the lie we made

Lost in the echoes of a masquerade

Fake love in the city lights, we pretend

Playing roles that don't feel real or end

Hearts beating out of sync, can't escape

Dancing on the edge of a fragile tape

Wish I knew if you're feeling the same

Drowning in this pretend love game

Hold me close, but I feel the ice

Longing for a love that feels so nice

Longing for your fake love, it's bittersweet

Falling deep in the illusion, can't retreat

High notes soaring, hearts collide

In this pretend love, we hide

Fake smiles, fake tears, it's all a show

Pretend we're fine but we don't really know

Rhythms of the night, secrets we keep

Living in a dream, too scared to leap

Echoes of the past, shadows we chase

Playing with fire, losing our place

Heartbeat racing, but we're numb

Waiting for the day when we're free from

(Harmonization & falsettos both soaring)

In this illusion, we are lost

Yearning for what we thought we’d lost

Hold on tight, don’t let go

Fake love’s the only thing we know

Whispered lies, a love so cold

In this story that we told

Longing still, in our glow

For a love we used to know

(Vocalists 1 & 3 Harmonization)

We used to know....
