Pretense, It is something you carry around Like it is a part of you, Like it is who you are, Like it is engraved in your heart. Pretending to be someone You are not. Hiding your tears In the rain Pretending to ease the pain. Hiding under the blanket of lies, Wearing the happy mask When inside you are crying. What are you hiding from? Whom are you lying to? Your pretense, It is suppressing the truth, Piling up the emotions inside. When your heart aches Let your eyes weep. 'cause pretending to laugh Won't **** your grief. Why build a castle of grief inside When you can Shed it all out. Why burden your soul With such a lie When all you need is To try. Remember, The world of pretense Is a cage Not a cocoon. You can lie to yourself Only for so long Copyrights © JGarg

The Blanket Of Pretense
Pretense, It is something you carry around Like it is a part of you, Like it is who you are, Like it is engraved in your heart. Pretending to be someone You are not. Hiding your tears In the rain Pretending to ease the pain. Hiding under the blanket of lies, Wearing the happy mask When inside you are crying. What are you hiding from? Whom are you lying to? Your pretense, It is suppressing the truth, Piling up the emotions inside. When your heart aches Let your eyes weep. 'cause pretending to laugh Won't **** your grief. Why build a castle of grief inside When you can Shed it all out. Why burden your soul With such a lie When all you need is To try. Remember, The world of pretense Is a cage Not a cocoon. You can lie to yourself Only for so long Copyrights © JGarg
