[A]
I will be your shoulder to cry on
[F#m] I will make you laugh if you need
[E] I will play the part if you say so
[D] Yeah, I'll be anybody but me
[F#m] To tell you the truth, I'm a [E] mess, I'm a fool
You don't [D] know that
And [E]
[F#m] you never will in my [E] mind
And it's instilled not to [D] show that
I
[A] spend almost all of my time
Feeling like I'm falling even further behind
And I know I'm so good at deeming
Like I'm not on the edge of a knife
I'm the pretender, what can I tell you?
Designed to deceive
So tell me who you want me to be
I can wear a million faces
Cause I don't like [F#m] the one underneath
[E] [G#] Always found it easy to [E] [C#m] fake it
[D] Yeah, I'll be anybody but me
[F#m]
To tell you the [A] truth, I'm the fraud in the room
And I [D] know that
[C#m]
[F#m] But you never will in [E] my mind
It's [A] instilled not [D] to show that
I [A] spend almost all of my time
Feeling like I'm falling even further behind
And [F#m] I know [A] I'm so good at deeming
Like I'm not on the edge of a knife
I feel like everything I do is a lie
And all the words you're stung upon the wall of lies
I [F#m] know, I know, good at [A] being
[E] Who I am away from the light
[A] I'm the pretender, what can [F#m] I tell you?
Designed to [A] deceive
So tell me who you [F#m] want me to be
And [E] I'll be, [A] be my best impression
Of what you expect from [F#m] me
But what you [A] don't see
I spend almost all of my time
Feeling [E] like I'm falling even further behind
[F#m] And I know [D] I'm so good at [E] deeming
Like I'm not on the edge of a knife
I [A] feel like everything I do is a lie
And all the words you're stung upon the wall of lies
I [F#m] know, I know, good at [A] being
Who I am [E] away from the light
[A] I'm the pretender, what can [F#m] I tell you?
