Pretend

I find my self staring at the computer screen

Hoping for a reply but getting nothing.

The place I once considered my home

Is now just a place where I aimlessly roam.

Where I once came for comfort and fun

Is now a nightmare, and I want to run

Away from the sadness, away from the pain

Away from the proof that I am insane.

Because nothing here is real, it's all just pretend

But my brain doesn't want to comprehend

No one is really my friend, it's all just fake

I'm giving so much and I'm letting them take.

I try not to let them in

But they all have a charm, and that is my sin

I give in too easily, I love people too much

Now reality is dawning on me in a rush

So while they are out in the real world with their real friends

I'll just sit here all alone in the end.

Because that's what I get for believing in pretend.
