[Verse 1: Chester Bennington]
I've lied to you
The same way that I always do
This is the last smile
That I'll fake for the sake of being with you

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda, Chester Bennington]
Everything falls apart
Even the people who never frown
Eventually break down
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
Everything has to end
You'll soon find we're out of time
Left to watch it all unwind
The sacrifice is never knowing

[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
Why I never walked away, why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away, why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me pushes me away

[Verse 2: Chester Bennington]
I've tried like you
To do everything you wanted to
This is the last time
I'll take the blame for the sake of being with you
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda, Chester Bennington]
Everything falls apart
Even the people who never frown
Eventually break down
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
Everything has to end
You'll soon find we're out of time
Left to watch it all unwind
The sacrifice is never knowing

[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
Why I never walked away, why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away, why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me pushes me away

[Bridge: Mike Shinoda, Chester Bennington]
We're all out of time
This is how we find how it all unwinds
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
We're all out of time
This is how we find how it all unwinds
The sacrifice is never knowing

[Outro: Chester Bennington]
Why I never walked away, why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away, why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me pushes me away
Pushes me away
