The Anonymous Ones (From The “Dear Evan Hansen” Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

Ever looked all the people Seem to know exactly how to be? (How to be, how to be now, how to be) You think they don't need piles of prescriptions to function naturally? (Functioning natural) Take a look and you might catch it Stay a minute more (Minute more, minute more now, minute more) There's a little moment after the sunny smile Their eyes fall to the floor (To the floor, to the floor now, to the floor) And then truth starts peeking through (peeking through) They're a lot like me and you They can fake a smile too well The anonymous ones Never let you see the hate they carry (They carry, they carry, they carry) All those anonymous ones Never name the quiet pain they bury (They bury, they bear, they bear) Keep on keeping secrets that they think they have to hide What if everybody's secret is they have that secret side? And to know, to know we're not alone Is all we're hoping for I don't wanna be anonymous I ain't gotta be anonymous I don't wanna be anonymous anymore (Anymore) Spot the girl who stays in motion Spins so fast so she won't fall (World's spinning so fast, spinning so fast) She's built a wall of her achievements To keep out the question, without it, is she worth anything at all? Then truth starts peeking through They're a lot like me and you They can fake a smile too The anonymous ones Never let you see the hate they carry (They carry, they carry, they carry) All those anonymous ones Never name the quiet pain they bury (They bury, they bear, they bear) I don't wanna be anonymous I ain't gotta be anonymous I don't wanna be anonymous anymore The parts we can't tell, we carry them well But that doesn't mean they're not heavy The parts we can't tell, we carry them well But that doesn't mean they're not heavy The parts we can't tell, we carry them well But that doesn't mean they're not, heavy, heavy Anonymous ones Never let you see the hate they carry (They carry, they carry, they carry) All those anonymous ones Never name the quiet pain they bury Keep on keeping secrets that they think they have to hide What if everybody's secret is they have that secret side? And to know, to know we're not alone Is all we're hoping for I don't wanna be anonymous I ain't gotta be anonymous I don't wanna be anonymous anymore
