Just Pretend

Coming home to so much more than A dead end Where these walls stay put and you're worth more than Your wallet, your job, and your car, and your house You're not moving up But you're not moving down Just pretend Do you ever feel all alone Drive alone to not go home Sit beside myself I'm on my own Going nowhere I'm going fast How much longer Will this feeling last I'm off track But when was I not I can't stop this feeling I need more than heeling My thoughts are through the ceiling I'm alive but barely dealing Just pretend Coming home to so much more than A dead end Where these walls stay put and you're worth more than Your wallet, your job, and your car, and your house You're not moving up But you're not moving down Just pretend Keep your head up You're in such a better place than you were After all the trials and fires You learn to fight and grow Everything's a lie Nothing real anymore I think I'm prolly losing I've lost track of the score Throw out the keys And lockup the door I'm no longer settling for this I want more Just pretend Coming home to so much more than A dead end Where these walls stay put and you're worth more than Your wallet, your job, and your car, and your house You're not moving up But you're not moving down Just pretend
