If Life Doesn't Kill You, Emptiness Will.

Pretend

I'm very good at pretending
For instance, I'm good at being happy
But only because I fake it
It's not anything real
Yet you believe I am, correct?
Therefore, I am a good pretender.
Sure, I'm smiling from ear to ear
But it's not genuine
And neither is my laugh
Still good at pretending
And you better believe it now
And pay more attention
Because now I'll have to up my game
Be even better at pretending
And you might know now
But you might not.
