fake life


The song Fake life is written, composed, performed, recorded and produced by me, Martin Janssen.












Lyrics:

You got life together in your pretty little house
With your little kids and your little dream prince spouse

But late at night, when the kids sleep in their beds
after mommy's goodnight kiss on their little heads

You sit all alone, with tears running down your face
'cause you haven't seen your sweet loving dream prince for days

Your perfect pretend life seems great from the outside
no one sees how awful and bitter your love has died

No one to talk to, 'cause you're living in a fantasy
Do you remember me then? Do you sometimes think of me?

Do you think about your past and being young and free?
Do you remember me then? Do you sometimes think of me?

I do think of you girl. And I feel sorry for your grief
I feel bad you chose to live a life of make believe

But don't turn to me now, don't even say a thing
I rather stay away from the misery you bring



Some of the gear used:
Fender Stratocaster, Richwood Stratocaster, Yamaha bass, Kawai K1, Roland U-110, Boss Katana. Recorded and mixed with Presonus Studio One.
