Lying From You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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
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 fittin' 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
You
(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
