... Lying From You 02:55
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 cant pretend this is the way
It will stay/Im just
Trying to bend the truth
I cant pretend Im who you want me to be
So Im
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
Id 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 taugt 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 Im
[Trying to bend the truth]
But the more I push
The more Im pulling away
Cause Im
Lying my way from you
This isnt what I wanted to be
I never thought that what I said
Would have you running from you
Like this
The very worst part of you
The very worst part of you
Is me

There are just too many
Times that people
Have tried to look inside of me
Wondering what I think of you
And I protect you out of courtesy
Too many times that Ive
Held on when I needed to push away
Afraid to say what was on my mind
Afraid to say what I need to say
Too many
Things that youve said about me
When Im not around
You think having the upper hand
Means youve got to keep putting me down
But Ive had too many stand-offs with you
Its just about as much as I can stand
Just wait until the upper hand
Is mine
So many people like me
Put so much trust in all your lies
So concerned with what you think
To just say what we feel inside
So many people like me
Walk on eggshells all day long
All I know is that all I want
Is to feel like Im not stepped on
There are so many things you say
That make me feel like youve crossed the line
What goes up will surely fall
And Im counting down the time
Cause Ive had so many stand-offs with you
Its about as much as I can stand
So Im waiting until the upper hand
Is mine
One minute youre on top
The next youre not
Watch it drop
Making your heart stop
Just before you hit the floor
One minute youre on top
The next youre not
Missed your shot
Making your heart stop
You think you won.
