I'm not a liar
I tell the truth when I can
I'm such an optimist, you see
I felt the fire
When I found the proof that I am
Exactly who I planned to be
And that's blue
Oh so blue
Until you
I could handle that
Makeshift magic makes me feel alright
Take bad habits
Make them good tonight
I just haven't been that kinda guy in a while
But faking happy makes me happy
Makeshift magic makes me feel alright
I'm not a liar
I bend the rules a bit though
When it will suit my selfish needs
And my heart's desire
Is to be fooled into hoping
I can some hope in me
When I'm sad
And it's new
Until you
I could manage that
Makeshift magic makes me feel alright
Take bad habits
Make them good tonight
I just haven't been that kinda guy in a while
But faking happy makes me happy
Makeshift magic makes me feel alright
When I fall
When I lose
I feel small
Of no use
You got off
I got you
Faking happy gets me through the night
I've just always been that kinda guy
Makeshift magic makes me feel alright
Take bad habits
Make them good tonight
I just haven't been that kinda guy in a while
But faking happy makes me happy
Makeshift magic makes me feel alright
Make me feel alright
You make me feel alright
You make me
You make me
You make me
You make me
You make me feel alright
