Pretend

I died when I saw you skating backwards

The bits of you, that I can't keep but I can't give away
Oh

I died when I saw you reading Vautner

This song makes me cry because it remind me of you
But I'm going to listen to it over and over

And I'll just pretend you don't exist,
Pretend you don't exist
And cover up this hole with some more faces and skin
Oh
Pretend you don't exist, Pretend you don't exist
And imitate a man who doesn't cry in public places.

Last night my heart started beating faster

I found your ghost, a perfume of someone who wasn't quite you
Oh

I lied when I said that I was better

I spend my days off mostly drinking
And looking for a person who remind me of you

So I can Pretend you don't exist,
Pretend you don't exist
And cover up this hole with some more faces and skin
Oh
Pretend you don't exist, Pretend you don't exist
And imitate a man who doesn't cry in public places.

Well I don't need my girl anymore
Oh Oh
Please forgive me if I seem distracted
You know that I could never handle the truth, never handle the truth
Oh no

Well I don't need my girl anymore
Oh Oh
Please forgive me if I seem distracted
You know that I could never handle the truth, never handle the truth
Oh no

Let's go play make believe
And pretend you don't exist,
Pretend you don't exist
And cover up this hole with some more faces and skin
Oh
Pretend you don't exist, Pretend you don't exist
And imitate a man who doesn't cry in public places.

Pretend you don't exist, Pretend you don't exist
And cover up this hole with some more faces and skin
Oh
Pretend you don't exist, Pretend you don't exist
And imitate a man who doesn't cry in public places.
