Terrifying by The Monkees Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Open my eyes
And see your look back at me
So much information
When no words are spoken
I get so high
Just thinking of you
Feel just like a schoolboy
Forgetting my own name
[Chorus]
How much do you fake
The person that you are?
How much do you fake?
It’s terrifying
When you’re around me
And death-defying
I’m terrified
[Verse 2]
You think I live my life
Never looking back, but
They’re just myths they tell you
To take you to your ripe old age
But I’ve been alone
In a house so hollow
I never thought I’d meet you
Your perfect imperfections
[Chorus]
How much do you fake
The person that you are?
How much do you fake?
It’s terrifying
Your arms around me
And death-defying
I’m terrified
How much do you fake?
Terrifying
When you’re around me
And death-defying
I’m terrified
Each day brings another new sunrise
Open my eyes
And see your look back at me
So much information
When no words are spoken
I get so high
Just thinking of you
Feel just like a schoolboy
Forgetting my own name
[Chorus]
How much do you fake
The person that you are?
How much do you fake?
It’s terrifying
When you’re around me
And death-defying
I’m terrified
[Verse 2]
You think I live my life
Never looking back, but
They’re just myths they tell you
To take you to your ripe old age
But I’ve been alone
In a house so hollow
I never thought I’d meet you
Your perfect imperfections
[Chorus]
How much do you fake
The person that you are?
How much do you fake?
It’s terrifying
Your arms around me
And death-defying
I’m terrified
How much do you fake?
Terrifying
When you’re around me
And death-defying
I’m terrified
Each day brings another new sunrise
