"Pretending"
LYRICS:
"Sorry you can't be
What I need for me
Ain't worried in the
slightest
Damn...
was I supposed to be?
If I thought...
This would
inevitably
be a
happy ending...
I'd be pretending (x3)
Open arms
And open doors
Passageways
And trapped back doors
I've arrived
fell
through
the floor
Mesmerized
But what's in store?
They came for me
Now
They're
Comin (x2)
back for more (x2)
Lay down
And play dead
Play pretend (x2)
Who said this
Who said that
Where's the key
I think trapped...
They want
some more
Smile on my face
I've weathered
I've endured
Internally
I'm unsure
Authentic
to the
Core
confidence
Has been torn
what they said-
I'll play pretend x2
Fakin it
I'm makin it
Ever heard of
Takin it
Follow me
all the way up
Cause
I'm breakin in...
Act like-
we belong
I'll get on stage
I'll sing my song
Hear me out
I'm holdin on
I'm in and out
It's been so long...
Aint invited
But- I'll be attending (x2)
Ill be pretending (x3)
Mouse trap
Final act
Who said this
and
Who said that
Pull around
the Cadillac
take me out
slip out the back
Never
gonna fight
for me
Illuminated
Masterpiece
Givin me the
third degree
I speak in tongues
assertively
Burning
my sincerity
they-
Ain't here (x2)
for me
I see
What I sweat
And bleed
is just another
offering-
I'll play pretend
Until the end
I'll play pretend
I'm afraid
What you're
Givin me
Won't ever
be enough
For me
It's rough to see
disparity
You expel
on me
You take but,
You ain't
Givin me
What I need
Not
What I need
Lay down and play
Dead
Play pretend (x2)
If I thought this
Would inevitably
be a
happy ending...
I'd be pretending (x3)
Open arms
And open doors
Passageways
And trapped back doors
I've arrived
fell
through
the floor
Mesmerized
But, what's in store?
They came for me
Now
They're
Comin (x2)
back
for more... (x2)
Lay down
And play dead
and
Play pretend (x2)
I'll be pretending
Like it's my happy ending....
Future pending
Mind is bending
Is this what you been
Intending
Uprooted
and
upending
Now I'm transcending
I'm ascending
apprehending
look at me
now
more
No more pretending
(Al Pacino sample)
no more
pretending"
