Pretending歌词完整版
I made promises not worth keeping
spoke in lies that I don’t believe in
then when there was nothing left to say
I would go on anyway
loaned my love to a common thief and
made my peace with the wrong diseases
wondering like a wide-eyed memory
why I still can’t walk away
left to think in a foreign accent
stolen words and adopted habits
all the pains that were never even mine
so I could imagine your life
lead to light that had long been dying
I don’t know why I even tried when
all along it would never cross my mind
that I was pretending you were right
buried deep like a darkest secret
covered up till I couldn’t see it
when there was no place left that I could hide
I’d erase and overwrite
brought along on a borrowed errand
out for blood in an aisle left barren
but there was nothing left for me to find
that was even worth my time
so why die when it’s not my sword to fall on?
and why try when I’m right where I belong?
I made promises not worth keeping
spoke in lies that I don’t believe in
all the pains that were never even mine
so I could imagine a life
born of blood and devoid of meaning
all the things I could never be
with all the love left leading on the lie
I’ve resigned, I am right where I belong.
