Let`s pretend were not needy.
Let`s pretend our hearts still beat.
Let`s pretend we fall in love tonight,
Clumsy enough to fall for anything.
We`ll stumble on our words.
We`ll spill our guts on creaking bar stools,
Below the neon blue.
Low lives hiding in dives there`s no feeling in drinking, sleeping with strangers.
Ghosts passing through bedrooms unaware,
A faint reflection on the barback`s mirror,
A face I never knew whispering,
`Please dont be a stranger to me. Who are you if you`re alone?`
You`re no good at pretending.
All my plays have tragic endings,
You wish I was a fairy tale.
This frog will never change anything.
Just pretend that you`re in love,
That scolding sun is bound to come up eventually.
So who is it that whispers in your ear?
A haunting voice blows in through the window.
There`s no feeling floating over beds,
A needy pleading apparition
Crying, `Who am I if I`m alone?
I hardly exist at all.
Let`s pretend that we don`t need anything anymore from anyone.
I don`t want to feel anything anymore let`s just pretend, we`ll live happily ever after.` Send " Fairytales Tell Tales" Ringtone to your Cell
