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 will stay
I’m just
Trying to bend the truth
I can’t pretend I’m who you want me to be
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 see
No, no turning back now
The very worst part of you
Is me
I remember what they taught to me
Remember condescending 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 bend the truth
But the more I push
The more I’m pulling away
’Cause 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 see
No, no turning back now
The very worst part of you
The very worst part of you
Is me
This isn’t what I 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
Like this
This isn’t what I 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
Like this
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 see
No, no turning back now
The very worst part of you
The very worst part of you
Is me
