i could pretend that i don't care
i could pretend that you're not here
i could pretend the love is gone
i could pretend i'll get along
but that is just what i would do
pretend i can live, without you
but reality crashes in on me
without you,
i'm empty
i could pretend i'll do okay
i could pretend i'll find a way
i could pretend someone new will come
i could pretend they'll be the one
but that is just what i would do
pretend i can live, without you
but reality crashes in on me
without you,
i'm empty
I could pretend to wear a smile
i could pretend happiness for a while
i could pretend i don't miss you
i could pretend, but it just won't do
but that is just what i would do
pretend i can live, without you
but reality crashes in on me
without you,
i'm empty
