lyrics

Verse 1
I probably told you
I was fine but I lied
I know you don’t really care
So I’ll just hide how I feel inside
I’ll make up stories
Tell you things that you’d like
I know you like when I
Fabricate the truth

I make you laugh the most
When I am in pain
Hold back these tears
I’m a clown
I know I must entertain you all
when I go home
And I am all by myself
I take my make up off
And I donno who I am anymore



Chorus
Why are you so
Scared of the truth
You always wanna
Hideaway from everyone
Cause every time
I tell the truth
They always runaway, runaway
Why are you so
Scared of the truth
You always wanna
Hideaway from everyone
Cause every time
I tell the truth
They always runaway from me

Verse 2
You say you love me
And I know that it’s fake
But I don’t wanna be weird
So I just smile and say the same
You’ve always hid
Behind that beautiful face
But when I look at you
I see a masquerade
You say you’ve got my back
But I know you don’t
We may share the same blood
But that does not mean
A thing at all
Where were you at when
I got punched in my face
You were standing there
Keeping me restrained


Chorus
Why are you so
Scared of the truth
You always wanna
Hideaway from everyone
Cause every time
I tell the truth
They always runaway, runaway
Why are you so
Scared of the truth
You always wanna
Hideaway from everyone
Cause every time
I tell the truth
They always runaway from me
