Pretending

Pretending - Alec Benjamin

Lyrics by：Alec Benjamin/Sarah Barrios

Produced by：Sam De Jong

In this masquerade she can't feel the pain

Cover up her heart with a little paint

While he's pulling out a flask to hide it all away

There's nothing left to say

He knows that they're drowning

She hopes that there's still something left

Let go now 'cause he's leaving

But she'd be fine pretending things were alright

Even while it's ending keep it inside

She can feel them bending

In messages she's sending so what is she defending?

Even when she says she'll open her eyes

All her words are empty when she denies

But she can feel them bending

In messages she's sending so what is she defending?

But she'd be fine pretend

Step into the light to look him in the eye

Feeling so exposed she tries to stay composed

But every little fight and every little lie

Is impossible to hide

He knows that they're drowning

She hopes that there's still something left

Let go now 'cause he's leaving

But she'd be fine pretending things were alright

Even while it's ending keep it inside

She can feel them bending

In messages she's sending so what is she defending?

Even when she says she'll open her eyes

All her words are empty when she denies

But she can feel them bending

In messages she's sending so what is she defending?

But she'd be fine pretend

But she'd be fine pretending things were alright

Even while it's ending keep it inside

She can feel them bending

In messages she's sending so what is she defending?

But she'd be fine pretending
