She Pretends

by Jenni Marie   Oct 25, 2006


She Pretends she's okay
She Pretends she wont cry
She Pretends she'll keep on trying
But she knows that it's a lie.

She Pretends she's happy with her life
She Pretends that her eyes are dry
She Pretends that she's content
But she knows that it's a lie

She Pretends she'll keep on going
Pretends everything will work out fine
But she knows she's just lying to herself
She'll give up, just give it time.
