I wear a mask so you won't see what I hide
Put on an act of someone I hope you'll like
I'm terrified for you to see
Behind the curtain
So I keep on rehearsin'
I take the stage like a shell of myself
Somewhere between me and somebody else
You're picture-perfect
If you saw through my disguise
Would you tell me goodbye?
If I showed you who I am, would you use it all against me?
Would you still take my hand if I gave up on pretending?
Do you want me for me or who do you want me to be?
'Cause I just wanna be me around you
I talk in my sleep, I hope I didn't spill
Secrets that I keep, if you want me, I will
Open my book and
Let you read every page
Tell me, what would you say?
If I showed you who I am, would you use it all against me?
Would you still take my hand if I gave up on pretending?
Do you want me for me or who do you want me to be?
'Cause I just wanna be me around you
If I showed you who I am, would you use it all against me?
Would you still take my hand if I gave up on pretending?
Do you want me for me or who do you want me to be?
'Cause I just wanna be me around you
