We Pretend
I've been sleeping too long
Just hiding from the day
And I don't remember
How it feels to feel okay
When did we freeze up inside?
When did the flame die?
When did we decide it doesn't matter if we try
You don't realize
Or you don't want to know
That all this time
I've been walking out the door
You don't realize
Or you don't want to know
And I keep realizing
I can't seem to let go
So we're stuck right here
So we're stuck right here
We pretend to live
We pretend to live
A face so familiar
But a stranger deep within
If we'd met now
Would we even want to begin?
When do we open our eyes?
Time is passing by
When do we accept that this was all a lie?
But you don't realize
Or you don't want to know
That all this time
I've been walking out the door
You don't realize
Or you don't want to know
And I keep realizing
I can't seem to let go
So we're stuck right here
So we're stuck right here
We pretend to live
We pretend to live
(We pretend to live)
(We pretend to live)
(We pretend to live)
(We pretend to live)
We're stuck right here
We're stuck right here
We pretend to live
We pretend to live
I wish you'd realize and tell me I should stay
But deep down I know
We both know
We both know it's too late
Just hiding from the day
And I don't remember
How it feels to feel okay
When did we freeze up inside?
When did the flame die?
When did we decide it doesn't matter if we try
You don't realize
Or you don't want to know
That all this time
I've been walking out the door
You don't realize
Or you don't want to know
And I keep realizing
I can't seem to let go
So we're stuck right here
So we're stuck right here
We pretend to live
We pretend to live
A face so familiar
But a stranger deep within
If we'd met now
Would we even want to begin?
When do we open our eyes?
Time is passing by
When do we accept that this was all a lie?
But you don't realize
Or you don't want to know
That all this time
I've been walking out the door
You don't realize
Or you don't want to know
And I keep realizing
I can't seem to let go
So we're stuck right here
So we're stuck right here
We pretend to live
We pretend to live
(We pretend to live)
(We pretend to live)
(We pretend to live)
(We pretend to live)
We're stuck right here
We're stuck right here
We pretend to live
We pretend to live
I wish you'd realize and tell me I should stay
But deep down I know
We both know
We both know it's too late
