Pretend

Remember playing house when we were younger
All we needed was our imagination
We used to play pretend all the time
But what happened it got tiring for a while

We used to talk
We used to laugh
We used to do all that silly stuff
It was easier back then
But it stopped I don't know when

Maybe when I stopped pretending
And can't hold back this feeling
Maybe when I started falling
And didn't care what the world was thinking

Pretend is not an easy thing
Sometimes you have to break open and face everything
I wasn't pretending when I said I love you
But you just have to lie and say you feel the same way too

Your good at this game
I think your the one to blame
For this heart is aching
But don't worry it didn't stop beating

Why can't I stop loving you
And start pretending like I don't care
Why can't I start hating you
And stop crying like it never happened

Cause for me it wasn't easy
To pretend that you're just nothing to me
I wish I could play your game
So I wouldn't feel this pain
