ɴᴏᴡ ᴘʟᴀʏɪɴɢ: PERPETUAL PRETENSIONS (ft. pretensions)

───────────────⚪────

◄◄⠀▐▐ ⠀►►⠀⠀ ⠀ 2:58/ 3:48

This crooked cracked misty life,
With expectations high.
A body which only knows to breathe
and soul thats like a flickering light,
Whose mood changes every while.

I am expected to lead a consoleted life,
With dreams that touch the sky
But only I know,
What it feels like to cry with a face held high.

How do I confess?
I am done from perpetually pretending,
Something that I was never like,
and would never want to be alike.

People anticipate all the lies,
How will they ever know the truth,
That lies behind those extensive smiles,
And stop believing in those bright frame of minds.

Maybe one day will come when I'll stop pretending,
and forget whatever is spilled out of their jaws.

For them I will lose,
and for me that will be the best news.

It would be like,
a dead flower that just bloomed
and a butterfly that came out of it's cocoon.
Those fake smiles will be forever blurred
and that tired soul will finally rest after years.

At last I've decided to pull off
and end this perpetual pretention,
From the world that never understands lamentation.
