Lyrics of Everybody Knows by The Chicks
verse
Tell me now if you came sneaking 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
chorus
Stepping out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life
Everybody knows
Standing out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life
Everybody knows
verse
Looking 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
chorus
Stepping out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life
Everybody knows
Standing out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life
Everybody knows
bridge
You say I'll pay the price
That's the chance that I'll take
Though you may think I'm telling lies
But I just call it getting by
chorus
Stepping out, everyone can see my face
All the things I can't erase from my life
Everybody knows
chorus
Standing out so you won't forget my name
That's the way we play this game of life
Everybody knows I am just barely getting by
Writer(s): Gary Louris, Martie Seidel, Emily Robison, Natalie Maines
