Too many mornings I wake up
With an anvil on my chest
Already puttin fires out
That I started in my head
I'm gettin' tired
Of wrapping up my circumstances
Just to make them seem attractive, then
Hold my breath for your reaction but I
Still do
I don't wanna miss the party
Trying to be somebody else
I don't need you to love me
If it puts me through hell
If this isn't Halloween
What would I pretend to be?
Anything but myself
I try every outfit on I own
It didn't get me too far
Don't wanna seem to casual
Don't wanna look too try hard
Why do I care so much if everyone's doin' the same thing
Think of how much time we're wasting aways overcompensating
But I still do
I don't wanna miss the party
Trying to be somebody else
I don't need you to love me
If it puts me through hell
If this was Halloween
What would I pretend to be?
Anything but myself
Anything but myself
Anything but myself
Anything but myself
Myself, yeah
Yeah
I don't wanna miss the party
I never do, no
I don't wanna be somebody else
No
I don't wanna miss the party
Trying to be somebody else
I don't need you to love me
If it puts me through hell
If this is a Halloween
What would I pretend to be?
Anything but myself
Mm mm mm
