Pretend
Unveiling the Masks: Love, Deception, and Self-Discovery in Number One Gun's 'Pretend'
Lyrics
I'll stand, and you'll go
I will remain steadfast, while you depart
It's your turn but you don't know
It's your chance, but you're unsure
That these things will last forever
These experiences will endure eternally
It's your way, it's your time
It's your way of doing things, your moment
And you hide what you deny
You conceal what you refuse to acknowledge
And you've been like this forever
This behavior of yours has persisted for a long time
I hope you change
I wish for a positive change in you
You pretend that you're lovely
You feign that you possess loveliness
You pretend that you love me
You pretend to love me
And I will always hear you out
I am open to hearing your thoughts
You pretend that you're lovely
You fake being lovely
You pretend that you love me
You pretend to love me
Instead you'll let your heart grow old
Instead, you allow your heart to age
I've seen the way you move
I have observed your actions
You seem intelligent
You appear to be intelligent
You'd think I'd figure it out
One might expect that I would understand by now
By now I've had enough
I've had my fill of everything
Enough of all I can stand
I can't endure any more
I'm leaving this forever
I am putting an end to this permanently
You never explain it, the way you are
You never provide an explanation for the way you behave
And most things that happen seem to fall apart
Many things seem to fall apart
And when all of your troubles seem to go away
When your problems seem to fade away
You'll know who to believe in
You'll recognize who to trust or believe in
