Everybody Knows

Tell me now if you came sneakin' 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

Steppin' out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life, everybody knows
Standin' out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life, everybody knows

Lookin' 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

Steppin' out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life, everybody knows
Standin' out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life, everybody knows

You say I'll pay the price
That's a chance that I'll take
Though you may think I'm tellin' lies
But I just call it gettin' by

Steppin' out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life, everybody knows
Standin' out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life, everybody knows

Everybody knows, I'm just barely getting by
Everybody knows, I'm just barely getting by
Everybody knows, I'm just barely getting by
Everybody knows
