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
Stealin' second after second just 'cause I know I can, but
[Pre-Chorus 1: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
I can't pretend 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
[Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
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, 'causе I can see!
(No, no turnin' back now)
The very worst part of you is me!
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
I rеmember what they taught to me
Remember condescending talk of who I ought to be
Remember listenin' to all of that and this again
So I pretended up a person who was fittin' in
[Pre-Chorus 2: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
And now, you think this person really is me
And I'm trying to bend the truth
But the more I push, the more I'm pullin' away
'Cause I'm lying my way from
[Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
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 turnin' back, now)
The very worst part of you
The very worst part of you is me!
[Bridge: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
This isn't what I wanted to be
I never thought that what I said would have you running from me
Like this, this isn't what I wanted to be
I never thought that what I said would have you running from me
Like this (This) this isn't what I wanted to be
I never thought that what I said would have you running from me
Like this (This) this isn't what I wanted to be
I never thought that what I said would have you running from me
Like this
[Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Chester Bennington]
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 is me!
