When I pretend, everything is what I want it to be
I look exactly like what you had always wanted to see
When I pretend I can forget about the criminal I am
Stealing second after second just cause I know I can
But I can't pretend this is the way it'll stay
(I'm just trying to bend the truth)
I can't pretend I'm who you want me to be

Chorus:
So I'm lying my way from you
(No, no turning back now)
I wanna be pushed aside so let me go
(No, no turning back now)
Let me take back my life
I'd rather be all alone
(No turning back now)
Anywhere on my own cause I can't see
(No, no turning back now)
The very worst part of You is me

End Chorus:
I remember what they taught to me
Remember condesending talk of who I ought to be
Remember listening to all of that and this again
So I pretended up a person who was fitting in
And now you think this person really is me and I'm
(Trying to fill the truth)
But the more I push
The more I'm pulling away
Cause I'm lying my way from you

Chorus

This is the part I've wanted to be
I never thought that what I said
Would have you running from me, like this
This isn't what I wanted to be
I never thought that what I said
Would have you running from me 2x

Chorus
