Till Then I Just Pretend
The stage is set, the work is done
I made my bet, I'm on the run
I took the pain, stood in the rain
Was it all in vain?
I kept up the pace
I'm still in the race!
And I can hear the footsteps clearly
But there's no one at the door
I can win this game in theory
But there is no way to score!
Oh - it's tearing up my soul
What can make me whole
Will I be taking back control?
Oh - till then I just pretend
That everything will be fine in the end
Confidence less and worries more
I hold my breath and count to four
You should be scared
You should have cared
But you just look away
Have you never learned from yesterday?
And meanwhile I am sick of trying
To counter every shouted word
As long as I see people dying
It doesn't matter what you've heard!
Oh - it's tearing up my soul
What can make me whole
Will I be taking back control?
Oh - till then I just pretend
That everything will be fine in the end
Take back control! Take back control!
Oh - it's tearing up my soul
What can make me whole
Will I be taking back control?
Oh - till then I just pretend
That everything will be fine in the end
Till then I can pretend
That everything will be right
I made my bet, I'm on the run
I took the pain, stood in the rain
Was it all in vain?
I kept up the pace
I'm still in the race!
And I can hear the footsteps clearly
But there's no one at the door
I can win this game in theory
But there is no way to score!
Oh - it's tearing up my soul
What can make me whole
Will I be taking back control?
Oh - till then I just pretend
That everything will be fine in the end
Confidence less and worries more
I hold my breath and count to four
You should be scared
You should have cared
But you just look away
Have you never learned from yesterday?
And meanwhile I am sick of trying
To counter every shouted word
As long as I see people dying
It doesn't matter what you've heard!
Oh - it's tearing up my soul
What can make me whole
Will I be taking back control?
Oh - till then I just pretend
That everything will be fine in the end
Take back control! Take back control!
Oh - it's tearing up my soul
What can make me whole
Will I be taking back control?
Oh - till then I just pretend
That everything will be fine in the end
Till then I can pretend
That everything will be right
