I Don't Want You To See This

Perfect, it's what I strive for
Hide all of the bad
The evidence of before
I gotta hide from you
From everybody (From you)

Automatic since I was young
Had to be a parent
Cause my parents weren't enough
I've been conditioned to be sad
Too fake it all, to stay mad

So look at my house
Look at my car
Look at my smile
Isn't it nice
Isn't it deceiving
Look my job, making these songs
You think I'd be happy but I'm not
Isn't so nice
Isn't it deceiving

I don't want you to see this
It's me falling to pieces
Close your eyes
Focus on my lies
I don't want you to see this
It's me falling to pieces
Close your eyes
Pretend that I'm fine
I don't want you to see this

Sorry for any hurt that I have caused
Pain is in my blood
It travels right through my heart
That's why I'm faded all the time
And I'm always changing my damn mind
Shit, I didn't mean to open up
Forget words and picture me as enough
Cause if I'm crying or upset
I'm scared you'll leave me
Like all the rest

So look at my house
Look at my car
Look at my smile
Isn't it nice
Isn't it deceiving
Look my job, making these songs
You think I'd be happy but I'm not
Isn't so nice
Isn't it deceiving

I don't want you to see this
It's me falling to pieces
Close your eyes
Focus on my lies
I don't want you to see this
It's me falling to pieces
Close your eyes
Pretend that I'm fine
I don't want you to see this

I don't want you to see this, see this
I don't want you to see this, see this
(I don't want you to see this)
(I don't want you to see this)
