Are You Pretending?

I’ll pretend that I’m still here dreaming
I’ll pretend that this life has meaning
I’ll pretend that we’re getting somewhere
I’ll pretend that you’re not a nightmare
I’ll pretend that I’m singing sober
I’ll pretend that the war is over
I’ll pretend that we’re going down in history
I’ll pretend that this love is a mystery
Are you pretending?
Are you pretending?
I’ll pretend to forget you’re lying
I’ll pretend there’s no point in trying
I’ll pretend that you don’t control me
I' ll pretend that you just don’t know me
I’ll pretend that we live in silence
I’ll pretend that there’s love in violence
I’ll pretend that the world’s not ending
I’ll pretend that I’m not pretending
Are you pretending?
Are you pretending?
How did we succumb to this?
Here for your open eyes
Watching the years go by
Oh no!
I can’t believe my eyes
There’s some things you can’t disguise Oh no!
Are you pretending?
Are you pretending?
Are you pretending?
Are you pretending?
I’ll pretend that you’re a four-leaf clover
I’ll pretend that this song is over
Are you pretending?
Are you pretending…
