pretenders

as the light burns the eyes
of those who fake

what they feel when they say hate
the fear in their eyes
when death will arise

this reaction makes me cry
from the laughter
i cannot hide

they all will fake
just to pretend
just to lengthen the attention span

none of them know what suffer means
what pain is
what fear will bring

those who don't pretend
who don't fake because they can
are the ones that call to me
