Can You Pretend
I'm always wrong
It's been too long
Since I've been right
Since I've been strong
I played the game
And I lost it all
Was it worth the pain
For just a chance at a shot
I'm falling slowly
Backwards again
And i'm needing someone
To hold my hand
Can you pretend
That I'm fine in the end
I know
I'm not
The writings on the wall
Can you accept me
For who i am
I know
I'm flawed
But aren't we all
Can you pretend
That I'm fine in the end
I know
I'm not
The writings on the wall
Can you accept me
For who i am
I know
I'm flawed
But aren't we all
So here I am
Is this the beginning
Will it be okay
Or will i go in kicking
My failings don't define me
They aren't the things i could be
But my destiny is calling
And i'm tired of stalling
I'm always wrong
It's been too long
Since I've been right
Since I've been strong
I played the game
I lost it all
I'm falling slowly
Backwards again
And i'm needing someone
To hold my hand
Can you pretend
That I'm fine in the end
I know
I'm not
The writings on the wall
Can you accept me
For who i am
I know
I'm flawed
But aren't we all
Can you pretend
That I'm fine in the end
I know
I'm not
The writings on the wall
Can you accept me
For who i am
I know
I'm flawed
But aren't we all
It's been too long
Since I've been right
Since I've been strong
I played the game
And I lost it all
Was it worth the pain
For just a chance at a shot
I'm falling slowly
Backwards again
And i'm needing someone
To hold my hand
Can you pretend
That I'm fine in the end
I know
I'm not
The writings on the wall
Can you accept me
For who i am
I know
I'm flawed
But aren't we all
Can you pretend
That I'm fine in the end
I know
I'm not
The writings on the wall
Can you accept me
For who i am
I know
I'm flawed
But aren't we all
So here I am
Is this the beginning
Will it be okay
Or will i go in kicking
My failings don't define me
They aren't the things i could be
But my destiny is calling
And i'm tired of stalling
I'm always wrong
It's been too long
Since I've been right
Since I've been strong
I played the game
I lost it all
I'm falling slowly
Backwards again
And i'm needing someone
To hold my hand
Can you pretend
That I'm fine in the end
I know
I'm not
The writings on the wall
Can you accept me
For who i am
I know
I'm flawed
But aren't we all
Can you pretend
That I'm fine in the end
I know
I'm not
The writings on the wall
Can you accept me
For who i am
I know
I'm flawed
But aren't we all
