lyrics

close your eyes
count to ten
take a breath
let’s begin

the pretend (3x)

i’m okay
i’m alright
i’m okay
i’m alright
wouldn’t know what to say
otherwise
don’t let anyone in
as long as i don’t let anyone in (2x)

keep my mask on
and my blinds drawn
no one will see the tears i shed
when i place my head down
in the night
it’ll be okay
it’ll be alright
no matter what you do
don’t look into my eyes

they are watching
they see all
they take the space
between sanity and me

so i kiss fear on its cheek
just like that it walks away from me
tail between his legs
tail between his legs

they are listening
they hear all
they take the space
between sanity and me

so i count stars one by one
never stopped until i saw the sun
shining on my face
and this time it stayed
and it’s your embrace
helping heal my pain

and it’s your embrace
helping heal my pain

pretend (4x)
everyone playing pretend

i don’t wanna pretend no more
i wanna keep opening doors
as i walk hand in hand with you
there’s no need
to pretend
