Verse 1:
when i pretend everything is what i want it to be
i look exactly like what you would always wanted to see
when i pretend i dont forget about the criminal i am
stealin 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)

Chorus:
(no, no turning back now) i wanna be pushed aside so let me go
(no, no turning back now) lemme take back my life, i rather be all alone
(no turning back now) anywhere on my own cus i can say
(no, no turning back now) the very worst part of you is me

Verse 2:
i remember what they taught to me
remember condiscending talk of who i ought to be
remember listenin to all of that and this again
so i pretended up a person who was fittin in
and now you think this person is really me and im (trying to bend the truth)
but the more i push, the more im pullin away (lying my way from you)

repeat chorus

this isnt what i wanted to be i never thought that what i said would have you runnin from me
like this, this isnt what i wanted to be i never thought that what i said would have you runnin from me
like this, this isnt what i wanted to be i never thought that what i said would have you runnin from me
like this, this isnt what i wanted to be i never thought that what i said would have you runnin from me
like this

you

repeat chorus
