LET'S PLAY PRETEND
Let's pretend our inside jokes
won't make you laugh
Just pretend you didn't stare
and I'll pretend I didn't know
Will it be hard to try?
We can pretend our friends
didn’t try to set us up
Let's pretend that we didn't like it
and I am not your type.
Will you go home and cry?
Just pretend the kisses were unpassionate
Pretend we didn't enjoy cuddling
since my bed was empty the morning after
Will you hug your pillow tight?
We can pretend you didn't reach for my hand
Although I love it when you
wrap your fingers around mine
Continue on pretending
Pretend like there's no connection
No spark
Like nothing's happened
Let's just pretend we never met
Let's pretend we didn't care
I said I'm okay,
pretending to feel better
Are we good at pretending?
