in the pretend world

in the pretend world

we all are very awake

in the pretend world

we all look sterile and fake

in this atmosphere

we all could chatter for days

in the pretend world

we never admit our mistakes

but in the real world

were hiding alone and ashamed

and we cant live while

because were addicted to pain

you see i cannot feel this

no matter how you try

in the real world

we cant deny

in the pretend world

we gaze into empty eyes

we have to amuse ourselves

with adultery tales and white lies

but in the real world

where fools tormented for sport

we just stitch up our mouths

so we cant admit or retort

you see i cannot say this

please don't ask me why

in the real world

we cant deny

you see i cannot feel this

no matter how you try

in the real world

we cant deny

you see i cannot say this

please don't ask me why

in the real world

we cant deny

in my pretend world

we all are very awake

in this atmosphere

we all look starstruck and vague

you see i never loved you

no matter how you tried

in the real world

there's no goodbye
