The girl who always say yes
Wants to scream no
Takes over everyone's stress
Ignores her own
The life and soul of the party
But love to stay home
She says she's not broken-hearted
But she cries on her own

Playing pretend
I shouldn't hide it
It isn't right
Being a liar
I'm crossing the line
Dancing with fire
When I'm not fine
Should I deny it?

Cause I'm going crazy when I'm not okay
I keep praying that the cracks
Don't show my pain
'Cuz even when I'm falling
I say my life is like a dream
But I'm fighting through a nightmare
'Cuz I'm not really being me
See you don't really know me

The girl starts all the jokes, just make her laugh
Preaches the do's and the dont's but loves to be bad
Smiles when they guess who she's loving
What they say makes her mad
She says "I'm fine, I need nothing"
But she hopes for your hand

Playing pretend
I shouldn't hide it
It isn't right
Being a liar
I'm crossing the line
Dancing with fire
When I'm not fine
Should I deny it?

Cause I'm going crazy when I'm not okay
I keep praying that the cracks
Don't show my pain
'Cuz even when I'm falling
I say my life is like a dream
But I'm fighting through a nightmare
'Cuz I'm not really being me
See you don't really know me

You don't really know me
You don't really know me
How can you know me?
You don't really know me
You don't really know me

Cause I'm going crazy when I'm not okay
I keep praying that the cracks
Don't show my pain
'Cuz even when I'm falling
I say my life is like a dream
But I'm fighting through a nightmare
'Cuz I'm not really being me
And you don't really know me

I'm not really being me
I'm not, not, not really being me
