Pretending So Hard

Pretending so hard Doing so good That I almost see things the way I should And I get lost In your thoughts And agree with you the way I ought Pretending so hard that I'm far from the truth That I really haven't wasted all my youth That I'm not at all like you, cause you're pretending too Pretending so hard That you're my friend For reasons I can't defend My broken heart isn't sad I know you gave me everything you had Pretending so hard that I'm far from the truth That I really haven't wasted all my youth That I'm not at all like you, cause you're pretending too Is it better for us all if I live the letter of your law Pretending so hard That I'm not alone I won't contemplate how I've grown And withered away At your feet Trampled by the promises you didn't keep Pretending so hard that I'm far from the truth That I really haven't wasted all my youth That I'm not at all like you, cause you're pretending too
