I’m lying on my bed trying to figure out the chords to my guitar. And I’m wondering why I let her into my head and why she took it so far. It was just a simple sentence. Constructed out of worn out endings, but you took it to your mind and turned it into something out of Snow White. I don’t understand why you gotta be so fake? And I know that we all make mistakes and I try to understand that it’s just a phase, but why you gotta be so fake? Well, I-I-I-I won’t let you. I-I-I won’t let you get me down. And I-I-I-I won’t let you. I won’t let your fakeness get around. ‘Cause I’m still real. I’m still fighting for my dignity. I’m still real. Even though my mirror tries to convince me. And I’m still real. I’m still here. Fighting for my integrity, won’t back down apologetically. And I won’t give in. You run away and lie, but I won’t give in. I’ll reach until I touch the sky. And I’m still here, yeah, I’m still real. And I-I-I-I won’t let you get me down. And I guess I misunderstood everything I thought I knew about you. About you. And your pretty eyes are full of lies, you smile is a curse in disguise. But I thought I knew you, but I guess I didn’t, I don’t understand. Yeah, I don’t understand. It was just a simple sentence, constructed out of worn out endings, but you took it to your mind and turned it into something out of Snow White. You criticize… and hypnotize… and make me think that you’ve been good all along. And I say a simple phrase and then you take it and run away. Why you gotta be so immature? Why? But I-I-I won’t let you. No, I-I-I-I won’t let you control my mind. And I-I-I-I promise not to let you get me down and I won’t let your fakeness get around. No, I-I-I promise that I won’t let your fakeness get around.
