Lying from You (Live from New York, 2008)

When I pretend everything is what I want it to be

I look exactly like what you 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 this is the way itll stay Im just

(Trying to bend the truth)

I can't pretend Im who you want me to be, so Im

(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, Id 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 is me)

I remember what they taught to me

Remember condescending talk for who I ought to be

Remember listening to all of that and this again

So I pretended up a person who was fittin in

And now you think this person really is me and Im

(Trying to bend the truth)

'Cause the more I push the more Im pulling away 'cause Im

(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, Id 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)

This isnt what I wanted to be

I never thought that what I said would have you running from me

Like this, this isnt what I wanted to be

I never thought that what I said would have you running from me

Like this, this isnt what I wanted to be

I never thought that what I said would have you running from me

Like this, this isnt what I wanted to be

I never thought that what I said would have you running from me

Like this

(You)

No, turning back now

(I wanna be pushed aside so let me go)

No no, turning back now

(Let me take back my life Id 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)
