Fakes Like You (Make Me Sick) Lyrics

This is a lesson in letting your guard down.
Sometimes open arms are an invitation for disaster.
So next time .
I'll trust my fucking instincts.
Next time you come around,
all you will get are cold stares
& cold shoulders.
I'll be crouching with my fists clenched in the comer.
I can only hang on so tight for so long.
I'm letting you go.
I will be just fine on my - own.
You can't come in.
I'm leaving you out in the cold
because there's no room
left in my heart
for fakes like you.
I can only hang on so tight for so long.
I'm letting you go.
I will be just fine on my - own.
You can't come in.
I'm leaving you out in the cold
because there's no room
left in my heart
for fakes like you.
for fakes like you.
for fakes like you.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is from their self-titled 7". The lyrics are so direct and honest and I can definitely relate to them sometimes.
