Play Pretend - Puppet

«I didn’t feel alive,» she said

I keep falling through the floor

When do I get to see the world

I’ve been fighting all these battles for?

Just because I can’t sing

Doesn’t mean that I can’t feel

All my demons, all my everything

Aren’t any less real

She said «Let's play pretend and live our lives»

We can be who we wanna be

I’ll be a singer and you’ll be a writer

We’ll finally be free

If we’re lucky, we’ll live together forever

And you’ll never have to be

Alone in this world full of bullshit and terror

Without me

But, playing pretend isn’t always happy

We care, we pretend we don’t

If I was a singer, I’d sing to the world

About what hurts me the most

If you were a writer, you could write me a story

And leave out all my regrets

A life full of passion, a life full of glory

It would never have to end

She said
