Lying From You [Live LP Underground Tour 2003]
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 myway from)
(You)
[Nah, no turning back now]
I wanna be pushed aside
So let me go
[Nah, 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
[Nah, 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
(Trying to bend the truth)
But the more I push the more I'm pulling away, 'cause I'm
(Lying my way from)
(You)
[Nah, no turning back now]
I wanna be pushed aside, so let me go
[Nah, 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
[Nah, 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!
