Analysis of Fake Or True



When I first saw You,
I felt a dream is coming true,
Second time i saw you,
I felt life somthing new,
I followed my heart,my soul,But,
A stranger inside me wants the truth,
Why i had to run,
The time my inside being asked for you,
I'll follow my heartbeat,i'll follow you,
All by myself,i'll fight the world too,
All by myself,i'll wade into the mighty war,
I'll strive to find what is fake or true,
Please God, show me, tell me, send me,
The proof that my dream is not fake but true,
Please God,if i couldn't reach her,
Tell her my death was the only way,tell her,
It's the only way for a dream to come true,
Darling,don't ask why,beloved,don't wonder,
I didn't know that i was fake,
But i knew that you are true,
