I'm a Faker Too Lyrics
I give my best to you, it always seems I do
But underneath it all, I’m feeling very, very small
Afraid I am you see, to tell you who with me
Because you might withdraw, before I am no more
Listen to me woman, listen to me, woman
You claim that I am mean, telling you what I see
I have to face the truth, guess I’m the same as you
Don’t wait outside my door,
When I am lying on the floor
Pretending I am strong, although I know it’s wrong
My cover seems to be, a special part of me
Depending on the mood, I am my life I rule
Listen to me woman, listen to me, woman
You claim that I am mean, telling you what I see
I have to face the truth, guess I’m the same as you
I am a faker, I am a faker
But underneath it all, I’m feeling very, very small
Afraid I am you see, to tell you who with me
Because you might withdraw, before I am no more
You claim that I am mean, telling you what I see
I have to face the truth, guess I’m the same as you
When I am lying on the floor
Pretending I am strong, although I know it’s wrong
My cover seems to be, a special part of me
Depending on the mood, I am my life I rule
You claim that I am mean, telling you what I see
I have to face the truth, guess I’m the same as you

This song is about a facade put up for love, where one truly loves another, but to seem worthy of their love they stick up a facade of strength and self-worth. In actuality, underneath it all, they feel inadequate, or rather small, despite their efforts to please. Burke Shelley states that it was essentially inspired by Jimmy Hendrix's 'Foxy Lady', in a more ironic perspective.
