"Everybody Is A Little More Broken Than They Pretend To Be" lyrics

"Everybody Is A Little More Broken Than They Pretend To Be"

Everybody is a little more broken
Than they pretend to be
What are you hiding that you won't open?
You're broken just like me

If you wanna take charge
Then you gotta take the reins
I know who you are
The kind to never take the blame
Got your ideals for sale at the bar
A knife in the back of a promising star, oh no

Like my new ride
Hit my target every month
And get sky-high
I'll make partner at such and such
You'll never hear me apologize
'Cause I'm never wrong in my own eyes
Yes, I hurt inside

Everybody is a little more broken
Than they pretend to be
What are you hiding that you won't open?
You're broken just like me

Doesn't your face ache, smiling all the time?
While your heart breaks from what you bury inside?
I wanna be you
(I wanna be you)
I wanna be you
But you're a mirage
What a cruel view
(What a cruel view, what a cruel view)
This, too, will pass
At the big game, I shout and I scream
Trying to hide that I do not support a sports team

Everybody is a little more broken
Than they pretend to be
(Than they pretend to be)
What are you hiding that you won't open?
You're broken just like me
You're broken just like me

Broken sympathy
Broken sympathy
Do you pretend to be
Broken just like me?
Broken just like me?

Everybody is a little more broken
Than they pretend to be
What are you hiding that you won't open?
You're broken just like me
