It's astonishing
How we fake ourselves out
Shut your eyes and see

What you're really all about

Time will tell

But sometimes it lies
Hard to breathe
Being choked by your eyes


If you want to know
How we all should feel

How we all match up
And pretend to make it real


If I'd known to run
You should have allowed me one head start
Cause I'm not as quick at switching places

Not as fast at changing faces

Kicking, screaming all the way

It was my chance to save the day
Kicking screaming all the way
It was my chance to save the day


If you want to know
How we all should feel

How we all match up
And pretend to make it real


If I'd known to run
You should have allowed me one head start
Cause I'm not as quick at switching places

Not as fast at changing faces

I'm in trouble

(Trouble)
I've been running all night
(All night)

And I've been looking
(Looking for what?)
For someone to prove that I'm right

(He's right, he's right)
And I've been thinking
(Thinking about what?)

I've been crying my eyes out
(Wah wah)
And I've been waiting to break your heart

(Tick tock tick tock)

If you want to know

How we all should feel
How we all match up
And pretend to make it real


If I'd known to run
You should have allowed me one head start

Cause I'm not as quick at switching places
Not as fast at changing faces
