Let's Pretend

Laying on these cotton sheets

I go into the depth of midnight sighs

As I wait impatiently

For the sun to rise

Do you ever just feel so alone

You don't know if you'll ever find a friend

Cause this world will take your every breath

And soon we will all meet our end

Let's pretend our souls aren't growing dark

Let's pretend there's still a spark

Let's pretend we aren't running out of air

Let's pretend we have some to spare

Laying on this bed of grass

I watch the sun grow old in the sky

I know that this won't last

So let's pretend that we're not shy

I think someday is coming soon

and really I don't know what to do

Because we're supposed to live forever

But those fairytales we outgrew

Do you ever just feel so empty

Like you might never be whole again

If this tragic fate will ever change

Then I ask please tell me when

Let's pretend our souls aren't growing dark

Let's pretend there's still a spark

Let's pretend we aren't running out of air

Let's pretend we have some to spare

Laying on this bed of grass

I watch the sun grow old in the sky

I know that this won't last

So let's pretend that we're not shy
