Pretending to be okay
Pretending everything’s fine
It’s all so hard
I wanna put everything down now
I pretended that I ate
I pretended that I wasn’t hurting
I pretended that I didn’t shed tears
But actually, I’m hurting

I pretended that I was doing well
I pretended that I was in love with someone else
I pretended to be happy like that
But really, it felt like I was dying

Yeah, the scar when I tore you out is so itchy
I pour alcohol on the memories, irritated by scratching
I’m alright, I tried because I’m a man
Saying lies that I don’t even mean
I ask myself, what’s wrong with you?
My insides are rotten
So what’s the use of pretending to be okay?
I can’t do this anymore, pretending to be okay
I wanna throw it all away because I miss you right now

I’m tired of faking it now
It’s so hard, why did you leave me?
I’m so tired of faking it
Why don’t you know my heart?
Tears are falling
Again today
Pretending to be okay
Pretending that it doesn’t hurt
Pretending that I’m over you
I acted like an
Immature child every day
Because I was a
Selfish guy, bad at love
When I was next to you
I even ignored your flowing tears
Like a fool, I said it’s over
Between you and me
As I turned around

I’m tired of faking it now
It’s so hard, why did you leave me?
I’m so tired of faking it
Why don’t you know my heart?
Tears are falling
Again today

I pretended to be okay, pretended that I forgot you
I tried comforting my heart that’s filled with tears
I pretended to be okay, pretended that I forgot you
But I’m silently and endlessly crying again
