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 The very worst part of you This isn't what I wanted to be I never thought what I said Would have you running from me LIKE THIS! This isn't what I wanted to be I never thought what I said Would have you running from me LIKE THIS! This isn't what I wanted to be I never thought what I said Would have you running from me LIKE THIS! This isn't what I wanted to be I never thought what I said Would have you running from me LIKE THIS! 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 Let's go! Why does it feel like night today Something in here's not right today Why am I so uptight today Paranoia's all I got left I don't know what stressed me first Or how the pressure was fed But I know just what it feels like To have a voice in the back of my head It's like a face that I hold inside A face that awakes when I close my eyes A face watches every time I lie A face that laughs every time I fall (And watches everything) So I know that when it's time to sink or swim That the face inside is hearing me right beneath my skin It's like I'm, paranoid lookin' over my back It's like a, whirlwind inside of my head It's like I, can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin It's like I'm, paranoid lookin' over my back It's like a, whirlwind inside of my head It's like I, can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin (The face inside is right beneath my skin) (The face inside is right beneath my skin) (The face inside is right beneath my skin) The sun goes down I feel the light betray me The sun goes down I feel the light betray me It's like I'm, paranoid lookin' over my back It's like a, whirlwind inside of my head It's like I, can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin It's like I'm, paranoid lookin' over my back It's like a, whirlwind inside of my head It's like I, can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right Beneath my skin
