Better If I Just Pretend
Exploring my sadness
Grieving someone still alive
I know why I'm like this
Because a part of me died
When I left you, when I lost me
When I trusted you just because you were lonely
We have history, so you're owed all of me
Now I've been
Hanging around with your friends
I think it's better if I just pretend
Better if I just pretend
Better If I just pretend
I'm a stranger on your Polaroid
And you started a wildfire on our memories
You left a trial of pesticides and seemed
To poison all your company, your garden never grows
It's something I now know
While I watch us decompose and fertilise whoever's close
To wherever you are now, and the lies from your mouth
Now I've been
Hanging around with your friends
I think it's better if I just pretend that we're cool
Carrying the string of ghosts from what we had now
We were friends, but it's better if I just pretend
Better if I just pretend
Better if I just pretend (better if I just pretend)
Now I've been
Hanging around with your friends
I think it's better if I just pretend that we're cool
Carrying the string of ghosts from what we had now
We were friends, but it's better if I just pretend
When I left you, when I lost me
When I trusted you just because you were lonely
When I left you, when I lost me
And I trusted you, and now I still feel guilty
Grieving someone still alive
I know why I'm like this
Because a part of me died
When I left you, when I lost me
When I trusted you just because you were lonely
We have history, so you're owed all of me
Now I've been
Hanging around with your friends
I think it's better if I just pretend
Better if I just pretend
Better If I just pretend
I'm a stranger on your Polaroid
And you started a wildfire on our memories
You left a trial of pesticides and seemed
To poison all your company, your garden never grows
It's something I now know
While I watch us decompose and fertilise whoever's close
To wherever you are now, and the lies from your mouth
Now I've been
Hanging around with your friends
I think it's better if I just pretend that we're cool
Carrying the string of ghosts from what we had now
We were friends, but it's better if I just pretend
Better if I just pretend
Better if I just pretend (better if I just pretend)
Now I've been
Hanging around with your friends
I think it's better if I just pretend that we're cool
Carrying the string of ghosts from what we had now
We were friends, but it's better if I just pretend
When I left you, when I lost me
When I trusted you just because you were lonely
When I left you, when I lost me
And I trusted you, and now I still feel guilty
