In the lights we paint a smile
Fake a love that's worth a while
Truth is hidden all the time
Underneath the perfect line
Posts and pictures tell a lie
Happy faces pass us by
Words we say but never mean
Living in a shallow dream
If only
People were as real as they appear to be
If only
They were in love like they publish
If only
They were as sincere as they say
Sometimes it's not hard to know what's fake and what's real
If only
People were as real as they appear to be
If only
They were in love like they publish
If only
They were as sincere as they say
Sometimes it's not hard to know what's fake and what's real
(What is fake? What is real?)
Oh
(What is fake? What is real?)
Touch the screen but feel the void
Minds destroyed in digital noise
Wish we knew what hides inside
Behind the masks we cannot hide
False joy, empty people
Silent cries we cannot hear
What if we could share the pain
Show the storm inside the rain
If only
People were as real as they appear to be
If only
They were in love like they publish
If only
They were as sincere as they say
Sometimes it's not hard to know what's fake and what's real
If only
People were as real as they appear to be
If only
They were in love like they publish
If only
They were as sincere as they say
Sometimes it's not hard to know what's fake and what's real
(What is fake? What is real?)
Oh
(What is fake? What is real?)
(What is fake? What is real?)
