about

“Real You” is about a girl who continually leads me on. She acts like she's interested in me when we're together, but when we're with other people, she seems like she's not interested in me or even knows who I am.

"I got to say, nobody wants the fake you anyway. I got to say, you never looked good on me anyway."

lyrics

Verse 1

That face you make when you know that I don’t care
Makes you feel like life is so unfair
You try to hide your eyes, the sadness and the lies
But nobody knows the real you that’s inside

Verse 2

You are mad nobody notice you
Trying to give a little attitude
You try to hide your lies, you hate and you despise
But nobody knows the real you that’s inside

Pre-Chorus

OK hunny, OK hunny

Chorus

Iiiiii, got to say, nobody wants the fake you anyway

Iiiiii, got to say, you never looked good on me anyway

Verse 4

No makeup can cover your new scars
That you gave yourself, trying to stand out large
We both know what’s real, you’re not a big deal
Pretending to be somebody that you’re not

Pre-Chorus

OK hunny, OK hunny

Chorus

Iiiiii, got to say, nobody wants the fake you anyway
Iiiiii, got to say, you never looked good on me anyway
