it's getting so hard to pretend
pretend that everything is alright
pretend that i can actually do this
pretend that i'm the perfect girl they make me out to be
it's getting so hard to pretend
pretend that my smiles are genuine
pretend that i'm not scared
pretend that my laughs aren't just sounds to cover my sobs
it's getting so hard to pretend that i can get up every morning and not feel the weight of the world around me
it's getting so hard to pretend that i can hold in these tears and keep calm as they all look at me as if i'm unfixable.
it's getting so hard to pretend.
