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!
