I will be your shoulder to cry on
~#**************#~
I will make you laugh if you need
~#**************#~
I will play the part if you say so
~#**************#~
Yeah, Ill be anybody but me
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
To tell you the truth, Im a mess, Im a fool
~#**************#~
You dont know that
~#**************#~
And you never will
~#**************#~
In my mind, its instilled not to show that
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I spend almost all of my time
~#**************#~
Feeling like Im falling even further behind
~#**************#~
And I know Im so good at seeming
~#**************#~
Like Im not on the edge of a knife
~#**************#~
Im the pretender, what can I tell ya?
~#**************#~
Designed to deceive
~#**************#~
So, tell me who you want me to be
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
I can wear a million faces
~#**************#~
‘Cause I dont like the one underneath
~#**************#~
Always found it easy to fake it
~#**************#~
Yeah, Ill be anybody but me
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
To tell you the truth, Im the fraud in the room
~#**************#~
And I know that
~#**************#~
But you never will
~#**************#~
In my mind, its instilled not to show that
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I spend almost all of my time
~#**************#~
Feeling like Im falling even further behind
~#**************#~
And I know Im so good at seeming
~#**************#~
Like Im not on the edge of a knife
~#**************#~
I feel like everything I do is a lie
~#**************#~
And all the words just further pull the wool over eyes
~#**************#~
I know Im no good at being who I am away from the light
~#**************#~
Im the pretender, what can I tell ya?
~#**************#~
Designed to deceive
~#**************#~
So, tell me who you want me to be
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
And Ill be
~#**************#~
Be my best impression of what you expect from me
~#**************#~
But what you dont see is
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I spend almost all of my time
~#**************#~
Feeling like Im falling even further behind
~#**************#~
I know Im so good at seeming
~#**************#~
Like Im not on the edge of a knife
~#**************#~
I feel like everything I do is a lie
~#**************#~
And all the words just further pull the wool over eyes
~#**************#~
I know Im no good at being who I am away from the light
~#**************#~
Im the pretender, what can I tell ya?
~#**************#~
And Im an imposter, but Hell is a mender
~#**************#~
Im the pretender, what can I tell ya?
~#**************#~
Designed to deceive
~#**************#~
So, tell me who you want me to be
