Pretend

[Verse 1]
Say it’d never happen to me
Never give a fuck if we’re hollow
Artificial pleasure and peace
Numb away the pain and the sorrow

[Pre-Chorus]
No one cares to see we’re sickening
Can’t face the pain, can’t make amends

[Chorus]
So we just all pretend
All pretend
Yeah we just all pretend
All pretend
Racing to escape
Facing nothing so we all pretend
All pretend

[Verse 2]
Try to keep thе trauma discreet
Fantasize a dream for tomorrow
Watch a child starve as you feed
Whorеd away the soul that we borrowed

[Pre-Chorus]
No one cares to see we’re sickening
Can’t face the pain, can’t make amends
[Chorus]
So we just all pretend
All pretend
Yeah we just all pretend
All pretend
Racing to escape
Facing nothing so we all pretend
All pretend

[Bridge]
Point the blame to anyone
Repeating this again and again
Look away from the damage done
Cause this is how it always begins

[Chorus]
So we just all pretend
All pretend
Yeah we just all pretend
All pretend
Racing to escape
Facing nothing so we all pretend
All pretend
