Everybody Knows

[Verse 1:]
Tell me now if you came sneaking up behind
Would you know me and see behind the smile
I can change like colors on a wall
Hoping no one else will find what lies beneath it all
I think I hide it all so well.

[Chorus:]
Stepping out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life
Everybody knows
Standing out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life
Everybody knows.

[Verse 2:]
Looking through the crowd
I search for something else
But every time I turn around
I run into myself
Here I stand
Consumed with my surroundings
Just another day
Of everybody looking
I swore they'd never see me cry
You'll never see me cry.

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
You say I'll pay the price
That's the chance that I'll take
Though you may think I'm telling lies
But I just call it getting by.

[Chorus]
