Am
When I pretend,
Everything is what I want it to be,
C G
I looked exactly like what you had always wanted to see,
When I pretend,
I can?t forget about the criminal I am,
Stealing second after second just cause I know I can,
But I can?t pretend that 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 so I'm,
(Lying my way from)
Am
You!!!!!!!!
(No, no turning back now)
C G F7M
I wanna be pushed aside, so let me go!!
(No, no turning back now)
Dm
Let me take back my life
G Am
I?d rather be, all alone!!
(No turning back now)
C G F7M
Anywhere on my own, cause I can see!!!
(No, no turning back now)
Dm
The very worst part of you?
G Am
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 )
The more I push,
The more I?m pulling away,
Cause I?m,
(Lying my way from)
{Chorus}
This isn?t what I wanted to be,
I never thought that what I said,
Would have you running from me,
LIKE THIS!
{Chorus}
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!
