5 Seconds of Summer
Perfect Disguise
[Verse 1: Luke]
Take a left at the exit please
He's gotta get out of this body
His lungs collapse on the side of his guitar
Regrets with nothing left so far
'Cause he knows when or not to play himself
[Chorus: Luke, Luke & Calum]
He wears the perfect disguise
That keeps them on their feet
Trying to play Prince Charming
When he's dying within
Tells himself he gotta be loved
Tells himself he's going to steal the scene
He's asking the question
Whether he's messing around or he's serious
[Verse 2: Calum]
Take a right over here, please and thank you
'Cause he gotta get his head outta the sky
And a decision to lie to keep him fine
'Cause he knows when or not to play himself
[Chorus: Calum, Calum & Luke]
He wears the perfect disguise
That keeps them on their feet
Trying to play Prince Charming
When he's dying within
Tells himself he gotta be loved
Tells himself he's going to steal the scene
He's asking the question
Whether he's messing around or he's serious
[Bridge: Calum]
Time can't buy what we're looking for
It's like an island, oppressed and we're poor
If this turns out the way it's supposed to go
I'll see you tonight when everything's so blind in the lights
[Chorus: Luke, Luke & Calum]
He wears the perfect disguise
That keeps them on their feet
Trying to play Prince Charming
When he's dying within
He tells himself he's gotta be loved
He tells himself he's going to steal the scene
He's asking the question
Whether he's messing around or he's serious
