[Lyric] Pretender (The Copyrights)

The less I think
The more my imagination runs wild
And I've got these dumb designs on
Trying to make you smile
Oh so many have tried and
Just as many have failed

Still holding it close to the chest
It's always been a cheater's world
I'm stuffing aces up my sleeves but
All the corners are torn and curled
I'll saving for a rainy day
Dream maybe you'll want to play
But you're smart enough to know
That the house it always wins

Oh I can pretend that I'm happy
But I can't pretend that you love me
Oh I can pretend most anything
But I can't pretend that you love mе
I'm getting good at fogging my mind up
Driving all of those wishes out
What's thе point of holding out hope when
All those hopes just hold you down

But despite any rational thinking
You're still in the back of my mind
Holding it together til it's time to tear apart
