Lyrics: Kaeley Jade Wiebe
Music: Kaeley Jade Wiebe
I am my mother’s daughter
You were always your father’s son
I thought the lights shone brighter just for us, but I was wrong
I can’t give you what you want
I am my sister’s keeper
You were never your brother’s friend
I thought that we could make it back to where it all began
But that is not how this will end
You don’t know where to begin
And I don’t know how this should end
Why do you avoid my eyes?
Are you afraid of what you’ll find
Beneath the lies
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, beneath the lies
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh
I can’t tell just what you’re thinking
Can’t read the mask that you’ve put on
I thought that we could fix the broken mess that we’d become
But I don’t know you anymore
You don’t know where to begin
And I don’t know how this should end
You’re so tired of acting fine
And I️’m so done with playing pretend
Why do you avoid my eyes?
Are you afraid of what you’ll find
Beneath the lies
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, beneath the lies
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, beneath the lies
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, beneath the lies
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh
We’re trying to keep to ourselves
Remember our biggest regrets
Swallow words best left unsaid
But “I’m sorry” is stuck in my mouth
You don’t know where to begin
And I️ don’t know quite how to end
You’re so tired of acting fine
And I’m so done with playing pretend
You don’t know where to begin
And I don’t know how this should end
You’re so tired of acting fine
And I’m so done with playing pretend
Why do you avoid my eyes?
Are you afraid of what you’ll find
Whoa, oh (whoa)
Whoa, oh (whoa)
Whoa, oh (whoa)
Whoa, oh, beneath the lies (whoa)
Whoa, oh (whoa)
Whoa, oh, beneath the lies (whoa)
Whoa, oh (whoa)
Whoa, oh (whoa)
