I keep tricking my friends
Into thinking I'm alright
Don't they see I'm not fine?
I simply pretend
To not be hurt
When they say something
I don't like
But I have to
I can't let them see
They can hurt me this bad
Woah oh oh
I need to act
As if I'm perfect
I cannot mess up
Not even once
I keep faking a smile
Act like i'm alright
Just playing the part
They don't realize
How bad I don't like to
Be who I am
I keep pretending
As if I'm not tired
Of being someone
That I'm not
But I have to
I just don't know how
How can I act like I'm perfect?
If I don't even know what perfect is?
How can I pretend I'm worth it?
When I know I'm not worth much more than
How can I act like I'm perfect?
In front of the entire world?
I'm just waiting to fail
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
How can I act like I'm perfect?
If I don't even know what perfect is?
