Everybody Knows Lyrics - Taking The Long Way - Dixie Chicks

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 

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

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 

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

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 

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 I am just barely getting by
