Cheese, No Chins

[Verse 1] I say cheese no chins, hiding my flaws A perfect smile, but it's not who I am at all I'm a master of disguise, a fake work of art I conceal my true self, deep within my heart I'm afraid to be real, to let my guard down I'm trapped in this image, wearing a frown I'm searching for acceptance, but it's hard to find When I'm pretending to be, someone I left behind I'm lost in this facade, it's a never-ending fight To keep up the illusion, day and night I'm exhausted from hiding, but I won't give in I'll keep on pretending, until I win (Until I Winnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!) [Pre-Chorus] Can't let my true self show (No, I Can't) Gotta keep up the act, don't you know (Don't you knowwwwwwwwww) [Chorus] I say cheese no chins, but it's all a lie I'm hiding behind this mask, until I die I'm searching for a way, to break free from these chains But it's hard to break free, when their judgment still remains (Still Remainsssssssssssss!) [Verse 2] I say cheese no chins, but it's getting old This perfect image, is starting to unfold I'm suffocating under, this mask I've made Afraid to crack the surface, and show my true shade I'm trapped in this never-ending, cycle of fear Longing for genuine touch, but it's always unclear I'm struggling to express, the thoughts in my head Afraid of being ridiculed, and left for dead I'm craving raw honesty, but it's hard to come by In a world where flaws are flaws, and not a work of art in the sky I'm desperate to shatter, this illusion I've built And discover my true self, before my true self is killed (My true selfffffffffffffffffff!) [Hook] Can I be myself, without being rejected? Can I find acceptance, without being perfected? Can I be myself, without being rejected? Can I find acceptance, without being perfected? [Pre-Chorus] Can't let my true self show (No, I Can't) Gotta keep up the act, don't you know (Don't you knowwwwwwwwww) [Chorus] I say cheese no chins, but it's all a lie I'm hiding behind this mask, until I die I'm searching for a way, to break free from these chains But it's hard to break free, when their judgment still remains (Still Remainsssssssssssss!) (Can't let my true self show ) [Pre Chorus] Can't let my true self show (No, I Can't) Gotta keep up the act, don't you know [Chorus] I say cheese no chins, but it's all a lie I'm hiding behind this mask, until I die I'm searching for a way, to break free from these chains But it's hard to break free, when their judgment still remains (Still) [x2] [Outro] Maybe someday, I'll find the courage to be, my true self, without apology, wild and free.
