Make Pretend - Live from 2013
My bedside window was always left open
The summer breeze would convince us to wake up
My sister and I would laugh until our eyes were dry
Laughter until our eyes were dry
Piecing together, piecing all these things
Wrapped up in pain though they're sewn into lace
And worn by my mother with an ultimate grace
If we pretend will it help, help, help her case
Hope turned into silence, ran deep to my bones
The colors were fading, swallowed me whole
Tried to make fake real from the start
Tried to make make pretend heal my heart
But make pretend couldn't heal the scars, heal the scars
Our home was filled with happiness
It was clear it would be this way
We could not upset the rules in anyway
So I walked away, put the pictures away
But the last few months mail scattered on the kitchen floor
We hadn't cleaned up in a while
And the ink gets tired of settling we should have
Cleaned up, up, up for a while
Hope turned into silence, ran deep to my bones
The colors were fading, swallowed me whole
Tried to make fake real from the start
Tried to make make pretend heal my heart
But make pretend couldn't heal the scars, heal the scars
Tried to make fake real from the start
Tried to make make pretend heal my heart
But make pretend couldn't heal the scars, heal the scars
The summer breeze would convince us to wake up
My sister and I would laugh until our eyes were dry
Laughter until our eyes were dry
Piecing together, piecing all these things
Wrapped up in pain though they're sewn into lace
And worn by my mother with an ultimate grace
If we pretend will it help, help, help her case
Hope turned into silence, ran deep to my bones
The colors were fading, swallowed me whole
Tried to make fake real from the start
Tried to make make pretend heal my heart
But make pretend couldn't heal the scars, heal the scars
Our home was filled with happiness
It was clear it would be this way
We could not upset the rules in anyway
So I walked away, put the pictures away
But the last few months mail scattered on the kitchen floor
We hadn't cleaned up in a while
And the ink gets tired of settling we should have
Cleaned up, up, up for a while
Hope turned into silence, ran deep to my bones
The colors were fading, swallowed me whole
Tried to make fake real from the start
Tried to make make pretend heal my heart
But make pretend couldn't heal the scars, heal the scars
Tried to make fake real from the start
Tried to make make pretend heal my heart
But make pretend couldn't heal the scars, heal the scars
