Your smile pulls them in right from the start
You leave a false impression on everybody's heart
Everyone looks to you to see what you're gonna do
You don't have to work it too hard
You do your dirty work behind the scenes
You use a thousand people to orchestrate your schemes
Doing it secretly, hoping no one can see
The image behind the smoke screen
Now you're alone and there's no one in sight
Can you live with yourself when you turn out the lights?
It's what you do when there's nobody looking
It's what you say when you think nobody can hear you
When nobody's near you, but I can see through you
Some of us do it for the show
We save it for the spotlight when the cameras roll
So many empty words bouncing
Around from our heads but not from our souls
You fooled them all but you're not fooling me
I see the sham, not the man they see
It's what you do when there's nobody looking
It's what you say when you think nobody can hear you
When nobody's near you, but I can hear you
It's how you act when the script isn't written
It's what you get when there's nothing to get in return
You, you reveal the real you, and I can see through you
Now you're alone and there's no one in sight
Can you live with yourself when you turn out the lights?
It's what you do when there's nobody looking
It's what you say when you think nobody can hear you
When nobody's near you, but I can see you
It's how you act when the script isn't written
It's what you get when there's nothing to get in return
You, you reveal the real you, and I can see through you
And I can see through you, and I can see through you
And I can see through you, and I can see through you
And I can see through you
