Verso 1: We lie to our lovers We lie to our friends Painting our pictures and playing pretend We keep our se-crets all to ourselves Stand at a distance, so no one can tell And nobody knows us and nobody will We all keep pretending we're better but still We keep our secrets to cover our shame You see the darkness and You love us the same Instrumental Verso 2: We run from our troubles We run from our pain Gather the dirt, oh, and sweep it away We put our mask on, pretending by fame And carry our secrets with us to the gra---ve And nobody knows us and nobody will We all keep preten-ding we're better but still We keep our secrets to cover our shame You see the darkness and You love us the same Instrumental (x2) Verso 3: We hide our weakness We hide our sin We feel the guilt but keep it all in We are just children, small and afraid Your truth will unmask us and love us the same And nobody knows us and nobody will We all keep preten-ding we're better but still We keep our secrets to cover our shame You see the darkness and You love us the same Ending You see the darkness and You love us the same You see the darkness and You love us the same Instrumental (x2) Outro:
