  • You pretend to what you say you feel
    You pretend that you're something special
    All your lies that you hide behind
    I see right through you
    See right through you

    Paint it on, cover every inch
    Any flaw will expose your weakness
    I'm immune to your fantasy
    I won't become you
    Won't become you

    You want a perfect, perfect life
    Nothing wrong, nothing real inside
    All I see is a perfect lie
    I don't want your perfect life
    I don't want your perfect life

    So keep your dream with no consequence
    You damage me just to feed your senses
    All your fake for reality
    I see right through you
    See right through you

    Take your pride, take your vanity
    Can't you see that your ego's empty
    I will turn, I will walk away
    I won't become you
    Won't become you

    You want a perfect, perfect life
    Nothing wrong, nothing real inside
    All I see is a perfect lie
    I don't want your perfect life
    I don't want your perfect life
    I don't want your perfect life

    My eyes are wide open
    I see the enemy, the hypocrisy
    Your cover is fading
    Secrets pouring out, castles falling down
    Nothing to hide behind
    I know who I am inside
    I'm perfectly broken

    You want a perfect, perfect life
    Nothing wrong, nothing real inside
    All I see is a empty lie
    I don't want your perfect life
    I don't want your perfect life

    I don't want your perfect life
    I don't want your perfect life
