Lying From You

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

you
[no turning back now]
I wanna be pushed aside
so let me go
[ah / 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
