Start at the beginning we're on our way to church
Goin cuz that's all I know
Boring testimony my parents read the word
Livin off their reputation
I'm the good kid that every parent wants
But they don't even know the truth
That I'm the bad kid that wears a mask
To cover up pain within
I'm faking it
I'm faking it
Here I am just sitting thinking I'm ok
When my heart is screaming out for truth
Don't wanna ask for help cuz my pride stands in the way
Suppressing needs confined inside
I'm the good kid that every parent wants
And they don't even know the truth
That I'm the bad kid who wears a mask
To cover up the pain within
I'm faking it
I'm faking it
Ooo ooo smoke and mirrors screen all that longs to be discovered
Ooo ooo brokenness is bandaged to seem well put together
I'm the good kid that every parent wants
But they don't even know the truth
That I'm the bad kid who wears a mask
To cover up the pain within
I'm just a scared kid crawling through the dark
Shackled by my pain and sin
But I'm that good guy that everybody loves
But don't try seeing past my skin
I'm faking it
