A fraud in plain sight, living in eternal night
A hollow shell, empty and numb
No soul, all out of control
In darkness, I dwell, in my mind, I see hell

You and I, we're not alright, it's never fine, no
All my own mistakes, this never-ending self-hate
So, we'll try to live a lie, I'd rather die, so
So, I'll smile as I know nothing
I'm talentless but connected

A fraud in plain sight
Living with no light
Not even in the dark I can hide
I'm trapped in the cycle of lies
Haunted by the fear of being compromised

In darkness, I dwell, in my mind, I see hell

You and I, we're not alright, it's never fine, no
So, I'll smile as I know nothing
I'm talented and connected
So, we'll try to live a lie, I'd rather die, so
I can't stop seeking validation
I'm verified and respected

I'm a counterfeit
Talentless but connected

Why hate me?
I'm perfect
Why hate me?
I'm perfect
